I tried doing

#define ALIGN(x,a)                              \
        ({                                      \
                typeof(x) _a = (a);             \
                ((x) + _a - 1) & ~(_a - 1);     \
        })

but that won't compile because of <net/neighbour.h>:

        unsigned char           ha[ALIGN(MAX_ADDR_LEN, sizeof(unsigned long))];

gcc says:

/scratch/Ksrc/linux-merge/include/net/neighbour.h:104: error: braced-group 
within expression allowed only inside a function

I guess that could be fixed by changing that declaration but now this
is starting to feel like early 2.6.20 material.
