Fix warning reported by the kernel test robot:
drivers/input/touchscreen/ads7846.c:705:24: warning: taking address
of packed member 'data' of class or structure 'ads7846_buf' may result
in an unaligned pointer value [-Waddress-of-packed-member]

ds7846_buf is declared as packed so I believe using be16_to_cpu(buf->data)
will suffice.

I can adjust on my side if you agree.

Thanks.

The pointer to the data is is off by 8 bits, so it is not naturally
aligned. This is why we need to use function which is dealing with
unaligned pointers.

As I mentioned, the structure is packed, so the compiler will take care
of doing unaligned access safely on architectures that can not tolerate
it.

Thanks.
