Subject: KVM: s390: Add explicit padding to struct kvm_s390_keyop
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f7ab71f178d56447e5efb55b65436feb68662f8f;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git

KVM: s390: Add explicit padding to struct kvm_s390_keyop

The newly added structure causes a warning about implied padding:

./usr/include/linux/kvm.h:1247:1: error: padding struct size to alignment boundary with 6 bytes [-Werror=padded]

The padding can lead to leaking kernel data and ABI incompatibilies
when used on x86. Neither of these is a problem in this specific
patch, but it's best to avoid it and use explicit padding fields
in general.
