The 32bit kernel does not add padding bytes in the fc_bsg_request structure
whereas the 64bit kernel adds padding bytes in the fc_bsg_request structure.
Due to this, structure elements gets mismatched with 32bit application and
64bit kernel.To resolve this, used packed modifier to avoid adding padding bytes.
