I assmue "struct __packed hnae_desc" is the offending structure, because
flag_ipoffset field is defined as __le32 and is not 32 bit aligned.

struct __packed hnae_desc {
	__le64 addr;							//0
	union {
		struct {						//64
			union {
				__le16 asid_bufnum_pid;
				__le16 asid;
			};
			__le16 send_size;				//92
			union {
				__le32 flag_ipoffset;			//*108*
				struct {
					__u8 bn_pid;
					__u8 ra_ri_cs_fe_vld;
					__u8 ip_offset;
					__u8 tse_vlan_snap_v6_sctp_nth;
				};
			};
			__le16 mss;
			__u8 l4_len;
			__u8 reserved1;
			__le16 paylen;
			__u8 vmid;
			__u8 qid;
			__le32 reserved2[2];
		} tx;

		struct {
			__le32 ipoff_bnum_pid_flag;
			__le16 pkt_len;
			__le16 size;
			union {
				__le32 vlan_pri_asid;
				struct {
					__le16 asid;
					__le16 vlan_cfi_pri;
				};
			};
			__le32 rss_hash;
			__le32 reserved_1[2];
		} rx;
	};
};
