Building with W=1 results in the following warning:
In file included from arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/vas-fault.c:16:
./arch/powerpc/include/asm/icswx.h:159:1: error: alignment 1 of ‘struct
coprocessor_request_block’ is less than 16 [-Werror=packed-not-aligned]
159 | } __packed;

./arch/powerpc/include/asm/icswx.h:159:1: error: alignment 1 of ‘struct
coprocessor_request_block’ is less than 16 [-Werror=packed-not-aligned]
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
This happens because coprocessor_request_block includes several
sub-structures with an alignment specified using the __aligned(XX)
attribute. The problem comes from coprocessor_request_block having the
__packed attribute. Packing the structure causes the preferred alignment of
the nested structures to be ignored and we get the warnings as a result.
This isn't a problem in practice since the struct is defined with explicit
padding in the form of reserved fields, but we'd like to get rid of the
spurious warnings. The simplest solution is to remove the packed attribute
and use a BUILD_BUG_ON() to ensure the struct is the correct (expected by
HW) size compile time.
Also add a __aligned(128) to the request block structure since Book4 for P8
suggests the HW requires it to be aligned to a 128 byte boundary. There's a
similar requirement for P9 since the COPY and PASTE instructions used to
invoke VAS/NX accelerators operates on a cache line boundary.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
