Is it a general consensus that we have to replace that?
Well, it aligns the packed structs definition with the rest of the file
and the program I tried compiling built fine after this adjustment.
As I understand, uapi files are usually installed by
scripts/headers_install.pl, which takes care of replacing __packed with
__attribute((packed)). However if I do 'make install' in alsa-lib it
seems to install this one header containing __packed.
In theory alsa-lib also installs /usr/include/alsa/sound/type_compat.h
but to me it seems more like a workaround if I can have working header
without additional includes.
Also while there is a few more headers in kernel with __packed, this one
is the only one included in alsa-lib and being installed by it:
$ pwd
.../alsa-lib
$ grep -RI __packed *
include/sound/type_compat.h:#ifndef __packed
include/sound/type_compat.h:#define __packed __attribute__((packed))
include/sound/uapi/asoc.h:} __packed;
include/sound/uapi/asoc.h:} __packed;
include/sound/uapi/asoc.h:} __packed;
include/sound/uapi/asoc.h:} __packed;
$ pwd
.../linux
$ grep -RI __packed include/uapi/sound
include/uapi/sound/asoc.h:} __packed;
include/uapi/sound/asoc.h:} __packed;
include/uapi/sound/asoc.h:} __packed;

include/uapi/sound/sof/fw.h:} __packed;
include/uapi/sound/sof/fw.h:} __packed;
include/uapi/sound/sof/fw.h:} __packed;
include/uapi/sound/sof/header.h:} __packed;
include/uapi/sound/skl-tplg-interface.h:} __packed;
include/uapi/sound/skl-tplg-interface.h:} __packed;
include/uapi/sound/skl-tplg-interface.h:} __packed;
include/uapi/sound/skl-tplg-interface.h:} __packed;
include/uapi/sound/skl-tplg-interface.h:} __packed;
include/uapi/sound/skl-tplg-interface.h:} __packed;
$ grep -RI __packed include/uapi/sound | wc -l
14
$ grep -RI __attribute__\(\(packed include/uapi/sound | wc -l
40
I would say it is better to be consistent.

The header itself has <linux/types.h> include which seems to be enough
to take care of integer type definitions.
