Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/5] net: hsr: Add __packed to struct hsr_sup_tlv.

Struct hsr_sup_tlv describes HW layout and therefore it needs a __packed
attribute to ensure the compiler does not add any padding.
Due to the size and __packed attribute of the structs that use
hsr_sup_tlv it has no functional impact.

Add __packed to struct hsr_sup_tlv.
