IOMMU UAPI data size is filled by the user space which must be validated

extended by either re-purpose padding bytes or extend the variable sized
union at the end. No size change is allowed before the union. Therefore,
the minimum size is the offset of the union.

To use offsetof() on the union, we must make it named.
