Well, U-Boot and the kernel both share the dubious to incorrect __packed
horror of cros_ec things (see include/linux/mfd/cros_ec_commands.h).

If this is really not seen as useful for the kernel, that's fine, I'll
drop it.  I mainly did this for U-Boot where we do want a bit more loud
screaming going on when people add __packed to make sure it's for a good
reason.  Wanted to be a good neighbor so to speak and see if upstream
wants it too.
