  GCC-12 warns when a pointer of type union points to an array of same
defined size, as union internally gets paded with pad bytes.

../examples/common/neon/port_group.h:42:21: error: array subscript
	'union <anonymous>[0]' is partly outside array bounds of
	'uint16_t[5]' {aka 'short unsigned int[5]'}
	[-Werror=array-bounds]

      |                     ^~

	size [0, 10]

checkpatch complains about coding style error. It looks like a false positive ? 

Please suggest.

Thanks,
Amit Shukla

Should be:
