why use struct and union at all?

Why not just:

struct context_entry {
        u64     present:1,
                fpd:1,
                translation_type:2,
                reserved_l:8,
                asr:52;
        u64     aw:3,
                avail:4,
                reserved_h1:1,
                did:16,
                reserved_h2:40;
};

                memset(&context[devfn], 0, sizeof(...))
