James Smart Sept. 11, 2022, 10:15 p.m. UTC
Removed the lpfc_fdmi_attr_entry and lpfc_fdmi_attr_def structures
that had a union causing unintentional zero padding, which
required the usage of __packed.  They are replaced with explicit
lpfc_fdmi_attr_u32, lpfc_fdmi_attr_wwn, lpfc_fdmi_attr_fc4types,
and lpfc_fdmi_attr_string structure defines instead of living in
a union.  This rids of ambiguous compiler zero padding, and entailed
cleaning up bitwise endian declarations.

As such, all FDMI attribute registration routines are replaced
with generic void *arg and handlers for each of the newly defined
attribute structure types.
