The QEMU_PACKED is causing a compiler warning/error with GCC 9: CC block/nvme.o block/nvme.c: In function ‘nvme_create_queue_pair’: block/nvme.c:209:22: error: taking address of packed member of ‘struct <anonymous>’ may result in an unaligned pointer value [-Werror=address-of-packed-member] 209 | q->sq.doorbell = &s->regs->doorbells[idx * 2 * s->doorbell_scale];
All members of the struct are naturally aligned, so there should not be the need for QEMU_PACKED here, and the following QEMU_BUILD_BUG_ON also ensures that there is no padding. Thus simply remove the QEMU_PACKED here.
