This is pretty unlikely in real code, but similar to Arm, the AArch64
ABI has a bug with the handling of 128-bit bit-fields, where if the
bit-field dominates the overall alignment the back-end code may end up
passing the argument correctly. This is a regression that started in
gcc-6 when the ABI support code was updated to support overaligned
types. The fix is very similar in concept to the Arm fix. 128-bit
bit-fields are fortunately extremely rare, so I'd be very surprised if
anyone has been bitten by this.

* config/aarch64/aarch64.c (aarch64_function_arg_alignment): Add new
argument ABI_BREAK. Set to true if the calculated alignment has
changed in gcc-9. Check bit-fields for their base type alignment.
(aarch64_layout_arg): Warn if argument passing has changed in gcc-9.
(aarch64_function_arg_boundary): Likewise.
(aarch64_gimplify_va_arg_expr): Likewise.
