Hi Paolo,

Could you please elaborate a bit more why this is needed?
>>> This is a necessary commit as these structures should be packed since they represent hardware data structures and padding is not allowed by hardware.

Is this a bugfix?
>>> There are no issues observed due to this, but this should be updated anyway.

Please update the changelog accordingly
>>> I shall include more information in the changelog as well.

Thanks!

Paolo
