[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] hw/s390/ccw.c: Don't take address of packed members

[Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org>]

Taking the address of a field in a packed struct is a bad idea, because
it might not be actually aligned enough for that pointer type (and
thus cause a crash on dereference on some host architectures). Newer
versions of clang warn about this.

Avoid the problem by using local copies of the PMCW and SCSW
struct fields in copy_schib_from_guest() and copy_schib_to_guest().

This seemed like a not totally ugly and reasonably localised fix
that satisfies clang. Oddly, this makes the generated object file
15K smaller (421K vs 406K), so it might even be better code...
