Not really as such. __packed is supported in uAPI headers so I thought
__aligned should probably be as well. One factor here would seem to be that
__packed is way more common than __aligned is.

FWIW, a corresponding change has been done to scripts/kernel-doc; see
commit 3d9bfb19bd705f503ac7afc2776d5d56dab88858 so kerneldoc does correctly
handle that now.

Cc Jonathan.
