In preparation for FORTIFY_SOURCE performing compile-time and run-time field bounds checking for memcpy(), memmove(), and memset(), avoid intentionally writing across neighboring fields.
Use struct_group() in struct hfa384x_tx_frame around members frame_control, duration_id, addr1, addr2, addr3, and seq_ctrl, so they can be referenced together. This will allow memcpy() and sizeof() to more easily reason about sizes, improve readability, and avoid future warnings about writing beyond the end of frame_control.
"pahole" shows no size nor member offset changes to struct hfa384x_tx_frame. "objdump -d" shows no object code changes.
