Public bug reported:
This is a public version of https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2034983
[Description]
When running UnixBench/shell1&shell8&exelc cases, we observed high false
sharing for accessing i_mmap against i_mmap_rwsem.
The patch places the i_mmap and i_mmap_rwsem in separate cache lines to avoid
this false sharing problem.
