This only happens with CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_RANDSTRUCT=y.

Caused by commit

and then moved to this file by

from the drm tree.

CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_RANDSTRUCT help says

If you say Y here, the layouts of structures that are entirely function pointers (and have not been manually annotated with __no_randomize_layout), or structures that have been explicitly marked with __randomize_layout, will be randomized at compile-time.
