[libvirt] [PATCH 3/6] Ignore cast alignment warnings in inotify code for Xen.

From: "Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange at redhat.com>

The inotify Xen code causes a cast alignment warning, but this
is harmless since the kernel inotify interface will ensure
sufficient alignment of the inotify structs in the buffer being
read
