  Commit 92792ac752aa ("virtio-pci: Introduce admin command sending function")
added "__packed" structures to UAPI header linux/virtio_pci.h. This triggers
build failures in the consumer userspace applications without proper "definition"
of __packed (e.g., kvmtool build fails).

Moreover, the structures are already packed well, and doesn't need explicit
packing, similar to the rest of the structures in all virtio_* headers. Remove
the __packed attribute.
