[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 02/40] drivers/bus/dpaa: fix inconsistent struct alignment

The actual descriptor for qm_mr_entry is 64-byte aligned.

But the original code plays a trick, and puts a u8 common
to the three descriptor subtypes in the union afterwards
outside their structure definitions.

Unfortunately since they compose a struct qm_fd with
alignment 8, this trick destroys the ability of the compiler
to understand what has happened, resulting in this kind of
problem:

/home/agreen/projects/dpdk/drivers/bus/dpaa/include/
fsl_qman.h:354:3: error: alignment 1 of ‘struct <anonymous>’
is less than 8 [-Werror=packed-not-aligned]
   } __packed dcern;

on gcc 8 / Fedora 28 out of the box.

This patch moves the u8 verb into the structure definitions
composed into the union, so the alignment of the parent struct
containing the alignment 8 object can also be seen to be
alignment 8 by the compiler.  Uses of .verb are fixed up to use
.ern.verb (the same offset of +0 inside all the structs in
the union).

The final struct layout should be unchanged.
