Subject: [PATCH 6/7] habanalabs: align armcp_packet structure to 8 bytes

Once there is a 64-bit field in a structure, GCC compiler for ARM aligns
the structure to 8 bytes. In order to avoid confusion when these
structures are being passed between CPUs from different architectures, we
explicitly align the structure to 8 bytes.
