shamir rabinovitch c0adf54a10 net/rds: fix unaligned memory access
rdma_conn_param private data is copied using memcpy after headers such
as cma_hdr (see cma_resolve_ib_udp as example). so the start of the
private data is aligned to the end of the structure that come before. if
this structure end with u32 the meaning is that the start of the private
data will be 4 bytes aligned. structures that use u8/u16/u32/u64 are
naturally aligned but in case the structure start is not 8 bytes aligned,
all u64 members of this structure will not be aligned. to solve this issue
we must use special macros that allow unaligned access to those
unaligned members.

Addresses the following kernel log seen when attempting to use RDMA:

Kernel unaligned access at TPC[10507a88] rds_ib_cm_connect_complete+0x1bc/0x1e0 [rds_rdma]
