[PATCH v2 3/3] linux/fs.h: move member alignment check next to definition of struct filename

[Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk>]

Instead of doing this compile-time check in some slightly arbitrary
user of struct filename, put it next to the definition.

Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk>

v2: added, mostly as an example of use of static_assert(), to check
that the compiler actually groks it. Feel free to NAK it as useless
churn.
