block/vhdx: Don't take address of fields in packed structs
Taking the address of a field in a packed struct is a bad idea, because
it might not be actually aligned enough for that pointer type (and
thus cause a crash on dereference on some host architectures). Newer
versions of clang warn about this. Avoid the bug by not using the
"modify in place" byte swapping functions.
There are a few places where the in-place swap function is
used on something other than a packed struct field; we convert
those anyway, for consistency.
Patch produced with scripts/coccinelle/inplace-byteswaps.cocci.
