One subtile change of removing the marker is that fields may not be
aligned as before.

#if RTE_IOVA_IN_MBUF
        /**
         * Physical address of segment buffer.
         * This field is undefined if the build is configured to use only
         * virtual address as IOVA (i.e. RTE_IOVA_IN_MBUF is 0).
         * Force alignment to 8-bytes, so as to ensure we have the exact
         * same mbuf cacheline0 layout for 32-bit and 64-bit. This makes
         * working on vector drivers easier.
         */
        rte_iova_t buf_iova __rte_aligned(sizeof(rte_iova_t));
#else
        /**
         * Next segment of scattered packet.
         * This field is valid when physical address field is undefined.
         * Otherwise next pointer in the second cache line will be used.
         */
        struct rte_mbuf *next;
#endif

When building ! RTE_IOVA_IN_MBUF on a 32 bits arch, the next pointer
is not force aligned to 64bits.
Which has a cascade effect on data_off alignement.

      | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~


I hope reviewers pay attention to the alignment changes when removing
those markers.
This is not trivial to catch in the CI.
