I looked into this at one point, but didn't get as far as generating
patches.  I think that the approach was roughly to collect the types of
the fields, and then generate code that would use BUILD_BUG_ON to complain
if the sum of the sizes was not the same as the size of the structure.
The problem was that I wasn't sure what was a real problem, nor what was
the best way to solve it.
