I was thinking of pahole too ;-)

But the information can also be captured from the format files with simple
scripts as well. And perhaps be more tuned to see if there's actually a fix
for them, and ignore reporting it if there is no fix, as all trace events
are 4 byte aligned, and if we are off by one, sometimes it doesn't matter.
