Please don't use <foo> in the title, especially not if the patch only
introduces usage of eth_zero_addr(). It's easier to look for in the
commit log without it.

Other than that, I guess I'll apply this, but I really wish there was a
way to distinguish more easily which of these require alignment and
which don't.

eth_zero_addr() doesn,t but is_zero_ether_addr() does. So does
ether_addr_copy(). Frankly, it's getting a bit confusing, so I can't
really fault anyone for using memset()/memcpy().
