[ Upstream commit dde7b3f5f2f458297aeccfd4783e53ab8ca046db ]
Adding such anonymous padding fixes the issue with uninitialized portions of bpf_xdp_set_link_opts when using LIBBPF_DECLARE_OPTS macro with inline field initialization:
DECLARE_LIBBPF_OPTS(bpf_xdp_set_link_opts, opts, .old_fd = -1);
When such code is compiled in debug mode, compiler is generating code that leaves padding bytes uninitialized, which triggers error inside libbpf APIs that do strict zero initialization checks for OPTS structs.
Adding anonymous padding field fixes the issue.
