commit a4cb6e62ea4d36e53fb3c0f18ea4503d7b76674f upstream.

clang emits a -Wunaligned-access warning on struct __packed
ems_cpc_msg.

The reason is that the anonymous union msg (not declared as packed) is
being packed right after some non naturally aligned variables (3*8
bits + 2*32) inside a packed struct:

| struct __packed ems_cpc_msg {
| 	u8 type;	/* type of message */
| 	u8 length;	/* length of data within union 'msg' */
| 	u8 msgid;	/* confirmation handle */
| 	__le32 ts_sec;	/* timestamp in seconds */
| 	__le32 ts_nsec;	/* timestamp in nano seconds */
|	/* ^ not naturally aligned */
|
| 	union {
| 	/* ^ not declared as packed */
| 		u8 generic[64];
| 		struct cpc_can_msg can_msg;
| 		struct cpc_can_params can_params;
| 		struct cpc_confirm confirmation;
| 		struct cpc_overrun overrun;
| 		struct cpc_can_error error;
| 		struct cpc_can_err_counter err_counter;
| 		u8 can_state;
| 	} msg;
| };

Starting from LLVM 14, having an unpacked struct nested in a packed
struct triggers a warning. c.f. [1].

Fix the warning by marking the anonymous union as packed.
