If the VXLAN header is not aligned to 4 bytes, then IP header is not
aligned to 4 bytes, too, and you have greater problems than just VXLAN.

IPv6 header is certainly not 20 bytes.

If you see unaligned access, something is wrong. But I very much doubt
that the problem is at the place you're trying to fix. Could you share
the traces with us?
