Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Use alignof__(struct {type b;}) instead of
 offsetof()

From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@...dmis.org>

Simplify:

  #define ALIGN_STRUCTFIELD(type) ((int)(offsetof(struct {char a; type b;}, b)))

with

  #define  ALIGN_STRUCTFIELD(type) __alignof__(struct {type b;})

Which works just the same.
