Not sure if I understand. I think we have union with payload with 
the patch. The structure looks like this:

struct il_device_cmd {
	struct il_cmd_header hdr;	/* uCode API */
	union {
		u32 flags;
		u8 val8;
		u16 val16;
		u32 val32;
		struct il_tx_cmd tx;
		u8 payload[DEF_CMD_PAYLOAD_SIZE];
		DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY(u8, raw);
	} __packed cmd;
} __packed;

BTW, the first four cmd union fields i.e. flags, val8 ...
can be removed as well, seems nothing touch those fields in the code.
