PATCH 2/6 mac80211: slight optimization of addr compare

Joe Perches add ether_addr_equal_unaligned to test if possibly unaligned to u16 Ethernet addresses are equal.

If CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS is set, this uses the slightly faster generic routine ether_addr_equal, otherwise this uses memcmp.

Your indentation is terrible, I'm not applying this.
