Per comments from an upstream kernel patch, and looking at how TLV
LE_STRUCT code works, we actually want these structures to be 4byte
aligned, not 1byte aligned.
In practice, 1byte alignment has worked so far because all our
structures end up being a multiple of 4. But if a future TLV
structure were added that had a u8 or similar sticking on the end things
would break. Fix this by using 4byte alignment which will prevent the
TLV LE_STRUCT code from breaking. Update the comment explaining that we
need 4byte alignment of our structures.
Fixes:
