[ Upstream commit c25d01e1c4 ]
The unpacked unions within a packed struct generates alignment warnings
on clang for 32-bit ARM:
./usr/include/linux/vbox_vmmdev_types.h:239:4: error: field u within 'struct vmmdev_hgcm_function_parameter32'
is less aligned than 'union (unnamed union at ./usr/include/linux/vbox_vmmdev_types.h:223:2)'
and is usually due to 'struct vmmdev_hgcm_function_parameter32' being packed,
which can lead to unaligned accesses [-Werror,-Wunaligned-access]
239 | } u;
| ^
./usr/include/linux/vbox_vmmdev_types.h:254:6: error: field u within
'struct vmmdev_hgcm_function_parameter64::(anonymous union)::(unnamed at ./usr/include/linux/vbox_vmmdev_types.h:249:3)'
is less aligned than 'union (unnamed union at ./usr/include/linux/vbox_vmmdev_types.h:251:4)' and is usually due to
'struct vmmdev_hgcm_function_parameter64::(anonymous union)::(unnamed at ./usr/include/linux/vbox_vmmdev_types.h:249:3)'
being packed, which can lead to unaligned accesses [-Werror,-Wunaligned-access]
With the recent changes to compile-test the UAPI headers in more cases,
these warning in combination with CONFIG_WERROR breaks the build.
Fix the warnings.
