Subject: [PATCH 5.4 141/168] firmware: imx: misc: Align imx sc msg structs to 4

From: Leonard Crestez <leonard.crestez@....com>

commit 1e6a4eba693ac72e6f91b4252458c933110e5f4c upstream.

The imx SC api strongly assumes that messages are composed out of
4-bytes words but some of our message structs have odd sizeofs.

This produces many oopses with CONFIG_KASAN=y:

    BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in imx_mu_send_data+0x108/0x1f0

It shouldn't cause an issues in normal use because these structs are
always allocated on the stack.

Fixes: 15e1f2bc8b3b ("firmware: imx: add misc svc support")
