Given the definition:
static inline struct sk_buff *__netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align(struct net_device
*dev,
unsigned int length, gfp_t gfp)
{
struct sk_buff *skb = __netdev_alloc_skb(dev, length + NET_IP_ALIGN,
gfp);
if (NET_IP_ALIGN && skb)
skb_reserve(skb, NET_IP_ALIGN);
return skb;
}
It really ought to be possible to code that without an extra conditional.

The AX88179_178A driver do need to know the value of NET_IP_ALIGN
to determine whether enabling the feature that makes IP header align
on a dword-aligned address, but according to the comments from David
Miller, I need to consider all situations, not just for the case that
NET_IP_ALIGN is zero, so the condition added in rx_submit is just used to
determine whether reserving NET_IP_ALIGN bytes for each SKB.
