Yes, i exactly had the same problem! That's why I suggested to use the
named structure member initialisation (which is not C89 conform) if you
remember.

Right, but the alignment should not be 4, so I would not expect any
problems with unaligned structure elements, as long as the structure is
not defined with __attribute__ ((packed))

Right, as mentioned above I solved them by correcting the device struct
initialisation.

Bye,
