[Qemu-devel] [PULL 11/30] nbd: simplify the nbd_request and nbd_reply structs

[Paolo Bonzini]

These structs are never used to represent the bytes that go over the
network.  The big-endian network data is built into a uint8_t array
in nbd_{receive,send}_{request,reply}.  Remove the unused magic field,
reorder the struct to avoid holes, and remove the packed attribute.
