From: Arnd Bergmann <a...@arndb.de>
clang warns about an unpacked structure inside of a packed one:
drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/b43/b43.h:654:4: error: field data within 'struct
b43_iv' is less aligned than 'union (unnamed union at
/home/arnd/arm-soc/drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/b43/b43.h:651:2)' and is
usually due to 'struct b43_iv' being packed, which can lead to unaligned
accesses [-Werror,-Wunaligned-access]
The problem here is that the anonymous union has the default alignment
from its members, apparently because the original author mixed up the
placement of the __packed attribute by placing it next to the struct
member rather than the union definition. As the struct itself is
also marked as __packed, there is no need to mark its members, so just
move the annotation to the inner type instead.
