Copying to a 16 byte structure into an 8-byte struct member
causes a compile-time warning:

In file included from drivers/firmware/arm_ffa/driver.c:25:
In function 'fortify_memcpy_chk',
    inlined from 'export_uuid' at include/linux/uuid.h:88:2,
    inlined from 'ffa_msg_send_direct_req2' at drivers/firmware/arm_ffa/driver.c:488:2:
include/linux/fortify-string.h:571:25: error: call to '__write_overflow_field' declared with attribute warning: detected write beyond size of field (1st parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Werror=attribute-warning]
  571 |                         __write_overflow_field(p_size_field, size);
      |                         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Use a union for the conversion instead and make sure the byte order
is fixed in the process.

Not sure how endianess is handled in the ABI, adding the conversion
seemed sensible here to allow big-endian kernels on a little-endian
firmware, but it's possible that ff-a is already required to do
the byte swapping in this case.
