The imx SC api strongly assumes that messages are composed out of
4-bytes words but some of our message structs have sizeof "6" and "7".

This produces many oopses with CONFIG_KASAN=y:

	BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in imx_mu_send_data+0x108/0x1f0

It shouldn't cause an issues in normal use because these structs are
always allocated on the stack.

Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org

Should we have a fixes tag and send it for -rc?

I haven't check but this would probably have to be split into multiple
patches because the structs were not added all at once.

Or maybe we can just drop the stable tag, as it addresses a corner
case issue which could concern very few people?

I think that "kernel does not boot with KASAN=y" is an issue worth fixing.

I will split and resend with appropriate Fixes: tags.

It seems likely that this will be picked up for -stable anyway via
Sasha's automation scripts and those scripts benefit from Fixes: tags.

Even if not, we realy very much on KASAN working on stable kernels, so
please do fix this :)
