It has since stable/6. But two recent changes added fields without compensating by reducing padding: 945f9a7cc9dcc071bfcc702748fbbb11087ae773 and 22c81cc51636cfebe94e0979eb31556d87775938 . Reduce padding to compensate. Direct commit to stable/14 because we decided to break compatibility in FreeBSD 15 in order to add more fields. Of course, that decision could be reversed before 15.0-RELEASE. See the review for details.
