ftrace: Remove unnecessary alignment tag from ftrace_event_call.
It's completely unnecessary and causes problems on platforms
where this tag down-aligns the structure's alignment.

Ok, unless we can explain why these alignments are needed at all, we
should kill all of them:

For reference my build with the above patch completed last night. That
does boot on my sparc64 Sun Fire V120 so at the very least the
relocation issues go away.
The machine wasn't very happy and networking/nfs was a little upset but
I'll wait until the patchset is more refined before investigating
further and trying to work out if it is related or not.
