ACK.
As a point of interest, is this the "new" recommended way? The reason I ask is
that the Linux headers are mostly in the attribute form.
AIUI, "__packed" is the one true way. I think this facilitates
compling the kernel with compilers other than GCC.
At any rate, Dave Miller threatened to injure me if I kept sending him stuff using
"__attribute__ ((packed))"... :-)
We certainly would not want that. Maintainers are too hard to find.
One point I missed earlier. As you are affecting both rtlwifi and rtl8192ce,
both should be in the patch title.
