[PATCH 3/4] ARM: KVM: Work around older compiler bug

Compilers before 4.6 do not behave well with unnamed fields in structure
initializers and therefore produces build errors:
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10676

By refering to the unnamed union using braces, both older and newer
compilers produce the same result.
