4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Matthias Kaehlcke <mka@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit bfb38988c51e440fd7062ddf3157f7d8b1dd5d70 upstream.

clang generates plenty of these warnings in different parts of the code,
to an extent that the warnings are little more than noise. Disable the
'address-of-packed-member' warning.
