Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.17 122/135] can: mcp251xfd: silence clang's -Wunaligned-access warning

From: Vincent Mailhol <mailhol.vincent@...adoo.fr>

[ Upstream commit 1a6dd9996699889313327be03981716a8337656b ]

clang emits a -Wunaligned-access warning on union
mcp251xfd_tx_ojb_load_buf.

The reason is that field hw_tx_obj (not declared as packed) is being
packed right after a 16 bits field inside a packed struct:

| union mcp251xfd_tx_obj_load_buf {
| 	struct __packed {
| 		struct mcp251xfd_buf_cmd cmd;
| 		  /* ^ 16 bits fields */
| 		struct mcp251xfd_hw_tx_obj_raw hw_tx_obj;
| 		  /* ^ not declared as packed */
| 	} nocrc;
| 	struct __packed {
| 		struct mcp251xfd_buf_cmd_crc cmd;
| 		struct mcp251xfd_hw_tx_obj_raw hw_tx_obj;
| 		__be16 crc;
| 	} crc;
| } ____cacheline_aligned;

Starting from LLVM 14, having an unpacked struct nested in a packed
struct triggers a warning. c.f. [1].

This is a false positive because the field is always being accessed
with the relevant put_unaligned_*() function. Adding __packed to the
structure declaration silences the warning.
