Just make tfrcor_dropped_packets_idx a plain u16.
tfrcor_loss_intervals_idx is part of a bitfield together with
tfrcor_seqno because it is 48 bits and we want to use what is left in a
u64.

Making tfrcor_dropped_packets_idx a 16 bits entry in a 16 bits bitfield
doesn't helps us here and likely produces bad code.

And even leads to some confusion, one would think that the second,
single entry bitfield would use 64 bits, as it is declared u64, but the
rule is:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ pahole bitfield
struct tfrc_options_received {
        u64  tfrcor_seqno:48;               /*   0 8 */
        u64  tfrcor_loss_intervals_idx:16;  /*   0 8 */
        u64  tfrcor_dropped_packets_idx:16; /*   8 8 */

        /* Bitfield WARNING: DWARF size=8, real size=2 */

        u16  tfrcor_loss_intervals_len;     /*  10 2 */
        u16  tfrcor_dropped_packets_len;    /*  12 2 */

        /* XXX 2 bytes hole, try to pack */

        u32  tfrcor_loss_event_rate;        /*  16 4 */
        u32  tfrcor_receive_rate;           /*  20 4 */

        /* size: 24, cachelines: 1 */
        /* sum members: 22, holes: 1, sum holes: 2 */
        /* last cacheline: 24 bytes */
};      /* definitions: 1 */

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$

The rule is so confusing that even gcc gets lost and emits debugging
information where it says the type of the bitfield is u64, thus 8 bytes
wide, but the offset of the next field is 2 bytes after the bitfield :-)

So just make it u16 and we'll get this:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ pahole bitfield

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ pahole bitfield
struct tfrc_options_received {
        u64  tfrcor_seqno:48;              /*   0 8 */
        u64  tfrcor_loss_intervals_idx:16; /*   0 8 */
        u16  tfrcor_dropped_packets_idx;   /*   8 2 */
        u16  tfrcor_loss_intervals_len;    /*  10 2 */
        u16  tfrcor_dropped_packets_len;   /*  12 2 */

        /* XXX 2 bytes hole, try to pack */

        u32  tfrcor_loss_event_rate;       /*  16 4 */
        u32  tfrcor_receive_rate;          /*  20 4 */

        /* size: 24, cachelines: 1 */
        /* sum members: 22, holes: 1, sum holes: 2 */
        /* last cacheline: 24 bytes */
};      /* definitions: 1 */

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$

And now we have a 2 bytes hole, so we may as well just stop
making the first two fields a bitfield.
