There's no good way to do this.  In an ideal world, you could add an
assertion that the offset is a multiple of __alignof__(struct
kinfo_foo), and gcc would understand, but I don't think that works in
practice.

Coverity will probably complain about this as well, but hopefully the
cast will pacify it like it pacifies gcc.

In pw_util and gr_util, scf@ and I solved a similar issue by using a
wrapper struct, but that wouldn't work here.
