This is one of the cases that Andy pointed out will be inconsistent
on x86_32.  That only requires 4 byte alignment for the s64 so here
we end up with the wrong amount of padding.  I've fixed that up
in v2 with s64 ts __aligned(8);

I've assumed the ack still stands given this is a fairly obscure corner.

Thanks,
