    ixgbe: fix ixgbe_orom_civd_info struct layout
    
    The current layout of struct ixgbe_orom_civd_info causes incorrect data
    storage due to compiler-inserted padding. This results in issues when
    writing OROM data into the structure.
    
    Add the __packed attribute to ensure the structure layout matches the
    expected binary format without padding.
