Subject: [PATCH 4.14 03/51] gcc-9: silence address-of-packed-member warning

From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@...ux-foundation.org>

commit 6f303d60534c46aa1a239f29c321f95c83dda748 upstream.

We already did this for clang, but now gcc has that warning too.  Yes,
yes, the address may be unaligned.  And that's kind of the point.
