Sorry, I should be explicit. Please rearrange the members in other structs such
that we could avoid holes (in future also). For instance, in
"struct bam_transaction" u32's and bool are mixed in the middle. You could
organize them like,

struct pointer
struct
u32
bool

And this goes same for all other structs as well.

Thanks,
Mani
