I think that's why Alexey added the alignment to the struct dmamacdescr declaration, to make sure that it always aligned on a boundary of 16 bytes (so even 128-bit busses don't face this issue). I don't know though whether the __aligned attribute should be at the type definition of the struct or at the declaration of the "struct dmamacdescr" inside "struct dw_eth_dev". I'm guessing the declaration inside "struct dw_eth_dev" will inherit the alignment requirements of the type def though, but not sure.
