sundance: Fix oopses with corrupted skb_shared_info

Browse source 
Joel Soete reported oopses at the beginning of pppoe connections since
v2.6.35. After debugging the bug was found in sundance skb allocation
and dma mapping code, where skb_reserve() bytes aren't taken into
account. This is an old bug, only uncovered by some change in 2.6.35.
