From: Sakari Ailus <sakari.ailus@xxxxxx>
The argument structs are used in arrays for G_TOPOLOGY IOCTL. The
arguments themselves do not need to be aligned to a power of two, but
aligning them up to the largest basic type alignment (u64) on common ABIs
is a good thing to do.
The patch changes the size of the reserved fields to 5 or 6 u32's and
aligns the size of the struct to 8 bytes so we do no longer depend on the
compiler to perform the alignment.
While at it, add __attribute__ ((packed)) to these structs as well.

since v2:
- Use 5 or 6 __u32's for alignment instead of 8 or 9, except for struct
media_v2_interface.
- Add __attribute__ ((packed)).
