fs: reorder struct inotify_device on 64bits to remove padding
Reorder struct inotify_device to remove 8 bytes of padding on 64bit builds, reducing size to 128 bytes . Therefore allocating from a smaller slab & using one fewer cachelines. Signed-off-by: Richard Kennedy <richard@rsk.demon.co.uk> ---- Hi, patch against 2.6.28-rc7. built & tested on AMDX2 desktop. I've not been able to send this to the listed inotify maintainers, I just get mail failures. So I guessed filesystem was the best home for it, hope that's ok. regards Richard Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
