On ARM alignment is done slightly different from other architectures. struct ieee80211_tx_rate is aligned to word size, even though it only has 3 single-byte members, which triggers the BUILD_BUG_ON in ieee80211_tx_info_clear_status This patch marks the struct ieee80211_tx_rate as packed, so that ARM behaves like the other architectures.
