WG14 N2350 made very clear that it is an UB having type definitions within "offsetof". This patch changes the implementation of macro "TYPE_ALIGN" to builtin "_Alignof" to avoid undefined behavior.
I've grepped all source files to find any type definitions within "offsetof".
offsetof\(struct .*\{ .*,
This implementation of macro "TYPE_ALIGN" seemes to be the only case of type definitions within offsetof in the kernel codebase.
GCC builtin __alignof__ has different semantics here. __alignof__() will in fact return the 'sane' result while structure alignment and _Alignof() return the ABI required minimum alignment.
