    [INET6]: Reorganize struct inet6_dev to save 8 bytes
    
    And make it a multiple of a 64 bytes, reducing cacheline trashing:
    
    Before:
    
    [EMAIL PROTECTED] net-2.6]$ pahole -C inet6_dev net/dccp/ipv6.o
    struct inet6_dev {
        <SNIP>
        long unsigned int          mc_maxdelay;          /*    48     8 */
        unsigned char              mc_qrv;               /*    56     1 */
        unsigned char              mc_gq_running;        /*    57     1 */
        unsigned char              mc_ifc_count;         /*    58     1 */
    
        /* XXX 5 bytes hole, try to pack */
    
        /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */
        struct timer_list          mc_gq_timer;          /*    64    48 */
        <SNIP>
        __u32                      if_flags;             /*   180     4 */
        int                        dead;                 /*   184     4 */
        u8                         rndid[8];             /*   188     8 */
    
        /* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */
    
        /* --- cacheline 3 boundary (192 bytes) was 8 bytes ago --- */
        struct timer_list          regen_timer;          /*   200    48 */
    
        <SNIP>
    
        /* size: 456, cachelines: 8 */
        /* sum members: 447, holes: 2, sum holes: 9 */
        /* last cacheline: 8 bytes */
    };
    
    After:
    
    net-2.6/net/ipv6/af_inet6.c:
      struct inet6_dev |   -8
     1 struct changed
