[PATCH 4.19 184/421] iio: potentiostat: lmp91000: Fix alignment of buffer in iio_push_to_buffers_with_timestamp()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2021-07-19 16:17:45
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: iio subsystem and drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Jonathan Cameron, Linus Torvalds

From: Jonathan Cameron <Jonathan.Cameron@huawei.com>

[ Upstream commit 8979b67ec61abc232636400ee8c758a16a73c95f ]

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 structure is not used, because this buffer is also used
elsewhere in the driver.
