mm: mm_struct: remove 16 bytes of alignment padding on 64 bit builds
Reorder mm_struct to remove 16 bytes of alignment padding on 64 bit
builds. On my config this shrinks mm_struct by enough to fit in one
fewer cache lines and allows more objects per slab in mm_struct
kmem_cache under SLUB.
slabinfo before patch :-
Sizes (bytes) Slabs
--------------------------------
Object : 848 Total : 9
SlabObj: 896 Full : 2
SlabSiz: 16384 Partial: 5
Loss : 48 CpuSlab: 2
Align : 64 Objects: 18
slabinfo after :-
Sizes (bytes) Slabs
--------------------------------
Object : 832 Total : 7
SlabObj: 832 Full : 2
SlabSiz: 16384 Partial: 3
Loss : 0 CpuSlab: 2
Align : 64 Objects: 19
