    'data' is not necessarily aligned on an unsigned int boundary.
    
    But second of all you want to use a fixed size type like "u32" or
    similar here, not "unsigned int".
    
    Altogether, something like:
    
    	union {
    		u8 data_u8[NCSI_OEM_MLX_CMD_GMA_LEN];
    		u32 data_u32[[NCSI_OEM_MLX_CMD_GMA_LEN / sizeof(u32)];
    	} u;
    
    	memset(&u, 0, sizeof(u));
    	u.data_u32[0] = ntohl(NCSI_OEM_MFR_MLX_ID);
    	u.data_u8[5] = NCSI_OEM_MLX_CMD_GMA;
    	u.data_u8[6] = NCSI_OEM_MLX_CMD_GMA_PARAM;
    
    If the rest of the ncsi driver has crud like this, it all needs
    to be fixed up similarly.
