3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Xiongfeng Wang <xiongfeng.wang@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 321cb0308a9e76841394b4bbab6a1107cfedbae0 upstream.
gcc-8 reports many -Wpacked-not-aligned warnings. The below are some
examples.
./include/linux/ceph/msgr.h:67:1: warning: alignment 1 of 'struct
ceph_entity_addr' is less than 8 [-Wpacked-not-aligned]
} __attribute__ ((packed));
./include/linux/ceph/msgr.h:67:1: warning: alignment 1 of 'struct
ceph_entity_addr' is less than 8 [-Wpacked-not-aligned]
} __attribute__ ((packed));
./include/linux/ceph/msgr.h:67:1: warning: alignment 1 of 'struct
ceph_entity_addr' is less than 8 [-Wpacked-not-aligned]
} __attribute__ ((packed));
This patch suppresses this kind of warnings for default setting.
