[PATCH v4 16/15] virtio-mem: Don't rely on implicit compiler padding for requests
From: David Hildenbrand
Date: Fri May 15 2020 - 06:14:27 EST
The compiler will add padding after the last member, make that explicit.
The size of a request is always 24 bytes. The size of a response always
10 bytes. Add compile-time checks.

Something I noticed while working on the spec (which proves that writing a
virtio-spec makes sense :) ).
