Please avoid larger than 80 column lines in your commit messages,
people use text-only tools to viee these.

Next, it makes no sense to restrict your change to NET_IP_ALIGN==0

Simply handle any case, by undoing the reservation if it's getting
in the way.  If there isn't an appropriate helper for this, add one.
