af_unix: Silence randstruct GCC plugin warning

While preparing for Clang randstruct support (which duplicated many of
the warnings the randstruct GCC plugin warned about), one strange one
remained only for the randstruct GCC plugin. Eliminating this rids
the plugin of the last exception.

It seems the plugin is happy to dereference individual members of
a cross-struct cast, but it is upset about casting to a whole object
pointer. This only manifests in one place in the kernel, so just replace
the variable with individual member accesses. There is no change in
executable instruction output.

Drop the last exception from the randstruct GCC plugin.
