From: Jonathan Cameron <Jonathan.Cameron@huawei.com>
[ Upstream commit dce793c0ab00c35039028fdcd5ce123805a01361 ]
Add __aligned(8) to ensure the buffer passed to iio_push_to_buffers_with_timestamp() is suitable for the naturally aligned timestamp that will be inserted.
Here an explicit structure is not used, because the holes would necessitate the addition of an explict memset(), to avoid a kernel data leak, making for a less minimal fix.
Found during an audit of all callers of iio_push_to_buffers_with_timestamp()
