[RFC] mmc: Remove alignment hole for cmdidx in struct mmc_cmd

The alignment hole caused by cmdidx in struct mmc_cmd cause strange
issues together with the peephole2 optimization on Amlogic SoCs.
Following was observed while working on SPL support for Amlogic SoCs.
sd_get_capabilities() normally issue a CMD55 followed by a CMD51.
However, on at least Amlogic S905 (Cortex-A53) and S905X3 (Cortex-A55),
CMD55 was instead followed by CMD8 (and a few reties) in SPL.
Code from the call site:
cmd.cmdidx = SD_CMD_APP_SEND_SCR; // 51
...
data.blocksize = 8;
...
err = mmc_send_cmd_retry(mmc, &cmd, &data, 3);
Running the code with MMC_TRACE enabled shows:
CMD_SEND:55
ARG 0x50480000
MMC_RSP_R1,5,6,7 0x00000920
CMD_SEND:8
ARG 0x00000000
RET -110
Removing the alignment hole by changing cmdidx from ushort to uint or
building with -fno-peephole2 flag seem to resolve this issue.
CMD_SEND:55
ARG 0x50480000
MMC_RSP_R1,5,6,7 0x00000920
CMD_SEND:51
ARG 0x00000000
MMC_RSP_R1,5,6,7 0x00000920
Same issue was observed building U-Boot with gcc 8-13. Please advise on
how to best work around this possible gcc optimization bug.
