This will prove interesting in the future I expect, unaligned accesses
are really
really slow on certain hw platforms, this is fine when you are
designing for x86 only,
but for non-x86 hw there is a chance that the unaligned access will
kill performance.

struct qxl_image_descriptor looks bad since it packs two 32-bits after
two 8-bits,
I'm sure there are other cases with similiar issues.
