Isn't it already the same without any of the padding here? Without the padding in vfio_vgpu_plane_info it's 4-byte aligned and we're following it with a 4-byte field, that works the same on 32 and 64bit. Padding the outer structure here makes no sense to me. Generally padding at the end of the structure is to allow flexibility in expanding it within that padding without breaking the ioctl. Here we use _IO and argsz/flags to do that.
