When merged with Linus tree, the cited patch below will cause the
following build warning:

In function 'fortify_memset_chk',
    inlined from 'mlx5e_xmit_xdp_frame' at drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en/xdp.c:438:3:
include/linux/fortify-string.h:242:25: 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]
  242 |                         __write_overflow_field(p_size_field, size);
      |                         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fix that by grouping the fields to memeset in struct_group() to avoid
the false alarm.
