gianfar: Optimize struct gfar_priv_tx_q for two cache lines
Resize and regroup structure members to eliminate memory holes and to pack the structure into 2 cache lines (from 3). tx_ring_size was resized from 4 to 2 bytes and few members were re-grouped in order to eliminate byte holes and achieve compactness. Where possible, few members were grouped according to their usage and access order (i.e. start_xmit vs. clean_tx_ring members), less important members were pushed at the end.
