I also envisioned that solution. I eventually chose adding a new struct,
for sake of homogeneity since the fellow kvm struct does not have such a
padding field: struct kvm_kernel_irq_routing_entry (kvm_host.h).
But I don't have a strong preference so if it is a general preference I
will follow, of course.
Thanks
