Event reports are used to convey information describing events to the registered user-callbacks: they are necessarily derived from the underlying raw SCMI events' messages but they are not meant to expose or directly mirror any of those messages data layout, which belong to the protocol layer. Using fixed size types for report fields, mirroring messages structure, is at odd with this: get rid of them using more generic, equivalent, typing. Substitute scmi_event_header fixed size fields with generic types too and shuffle around fields definitions to minimize implicit padding while adapting involved functions.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
