etherdevice: Optimize a few is_<foo>_ether_addr functions
If CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS is set, several is_<foo>_ether_addr functions can be slightly improved by using u32 dereferences. I believe all current uses of is_zero_ether_addr and is_broadcast_ether_addr are u16 aligned, so always use u16 references to improve those functions performance. Document the u16 alignment requirements. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
