We don't actually need to pack those structs, as they
are not used to do actual hardware access.

This avoids some unaligned accesses and therefore makes
the EHCI stack work on ARMv7 without compiler workarounds.

I need to review this properly, will get back to it soon.

Until then, CCing other good fellows.

My 7th sense is telling me, these descriptors are sent across the bus. 
ehci_submit_root() puts them into buffer and then ehci_submit_async() blasts 
them. I believe they must be packed, otherwise the format expected by devices on 
the bus won't match and it'll fall apart.

Dear Marek,

it seems you are right. Though it works for me this may be pure luck. So
please disregard this patch, I'll fix this up more properly.

Thanks,
Lucas

Cool thing we caught it :-)

http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches btw read up here ... don't top-post ... 
you know the drill.
