Fix extension alignment
The data extensions in ipset lacked the proper memory alignment and thus could lead to kernel crash on several architectures. Therefore the structures have been reorganized and alignment attributes added where needed. The patch was tested on armv7h by Gerhard Wiesinger and on x86_64, sparc64 by Jozsef Kadlecsik.
