qxl: avoid unaligned pointer reads/writes
The SPICE_RING_PROD_ITEM() macro is initializing a local 'uint64_t *' variable to point to the 'el' field inside the QXLReleaseRing struct. This uint64_t field is not guaranteed aligned as the struct is packed. Code should not take the address of fields within a packed struct. Changing the SPICE_RING_PROD_ITEM() macro to avoid taking the address of the field is impractical. It is clearer to just remove the macro and inline its functionality in the three call sites that need it. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
