dm: optimize reorder structure
This reorder actually improves performance by 20% (from 39.1s to 32.8s) on x86-64 quad core Opteron. I have no explanation for this, possibly it makes some other entries are better cache-aligned. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
