Bart Van Assche d8392af840 Apparently sparse ignores __attribute__((packed)) when applied to an enum
while gcc honors this attribute. The result is that
sizeof(struct fcoe_rcv_info) is 48 when the header include/scsi/fc_frame.h is
compiled with gcc and that sizeof(struct fcoe_rcv_info) > 48 when the same
header is compiled by sparse. As a result, compilation with sparse fails due
to the BUILD_BUG_ON() statement in the function fcoe_dev_from_skb(), even
when checking a vanilla Linux kernel with sparse. The patch below slightly
modifies include/scsi/fc_frame.h such that gcc and sparse interpret this header
in the same way.

Note: it is fine to revert this patch once the behavior of gcc and sparse is
again in sync.
