Partial fix to https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/Y8Ax%[email protected]/ (not a full fix, because if
short
below is replaced with aint
then the code still fails to compile)Currently binding for code like this wouldn't compile:
because bindgen sticks an extra
#[repr(align(2))]
on the inner struct.This extra alignment is not necessary and can be removed. The removed NB line in this PR is no longer relevant because of the addition _bitfield_align field generated starting in #1950.
