> 
> 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 nig_stats around members egress_mac_pkt0_lo,
> egress_mac_pkt0_hi, egress_mac_pkt1_lo, and egress_mac_pkt1_hi (and the
> respective members in struct bnx2x_eth_stats), 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 struct bnx2x_eth_stats's rx_stat_ifhcinbadoctets_hi.
> 
> "pahole" shows no size nor member offset changes to either struct.
> "objdump -d" shows no meaningful object code changes (i.e. only source
> line number induced differences and optimizations).
> 
> Additionally adds BUILD_BUG_ON() to compare the separate struct group
> sizes.
