This does not need to be marked packed, since it is never embedded in another
structure.

It's enough here to mark just the 'pin' member as packed.

You must not do a USB transaction on stack memory.

Same here

And here.

Here you also have a strange __packed attribute that makes no sense
for a local variable, in addition to the stack problem.

I think the only correct way to handle these is to add a dynamic
allocation of an entire page for the DMA, which can probably be
part of the dln2_transfer function so you don't have to do it
in each caller.
