During refactor in commit 9e478066eae4 ("mac80211: fix MU-MIMO
follow-MAC mode") a new struct 'action' was declared with packed
attribute as:
struct {
struct ieee80211_hdr_3addr hdr;
u8 category;
u8 action_code;
} __packed action;
But since struct 'ieee80211_hdr_3addr' is declared with an aligned
keyword as:
struct ieee80211_hdr {
__le16 frame_control;
__le16 duration_id;
u8 addr1[ETH_ALEN];
u8 addr2[ETH_ALEN];
u8 addr3[ETH_ALEN];
__le16 seq_ctrl;
u8 addr4[ETH_ALEN];
} __packed __aligned(2);
Solve the ambiguity of placing aligned structure in a packed one by
adding the aligned(2) attribute to struct 'action'.
This removes the following warning (W=1):
net/mac80211/rx.c:234:2: warning: alignment 1 of 'struct <anonymous>' is less than 2 [-Wpacked-not-aligned]

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
