Subject: rt2x00: Properly request tx headroom for alignment operations.
From: Gertjan van Wingerde <gwingerde@gmail.com>
commit 7a4a77b7771164d61ce702a588067d1e1d66db7c upstream.
Current rt2x00 drivers may result in a "ieee80211_tx_status: headroom too
small" error message when a frame needs to be properly aligned before
transmitting it.
This is because the space needed to ensure proper alignment isn't
requested from mac80211.
Fix this by adding sufficient amount of alignment space to the amount
of headroom requested for TX frames.
