The get_hw_info uses a smaller user buffer on purpose to check how
the kernel updates only the fields that fit in the buffer. The test
created a custom smaller struct for this, but the helper function later
treats the buffer as struct iommu_test_hw_info. This makes the compiler
warn about a possible out-of-bounds access (-Warray-bounds).

This keeps the test behavior the same and removes the warning.
