I will save only a line but I will add this change in the next version
as I like it more than what I wrote.

Thanks for the suggestion. I make sure not that this struct will not
have any holes.
Can it be a rule of thumb, that every time when a new member is added to
a struct, to make sure that it doesn't introduce any holes?

I think I will take this battle at later point when I will add XSK :)
After I finish with this patch series, I will need to focus on some VCAP
support for lan966x.
And maybe after that I will be able to add XSK. Because I need to look
more at this XSK topic as I have looked too much on it before but I heard
a lot of great things about it :)
