Subject: clocksource: Restructure clocksource struct members
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=369db4c9524b7487faf1ff89646eee396c1363e1;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

clocksource: Restructure clocksource struct members

Group the hot path members of struct clocksource together so we have a
better cache line footprint. Make it cacheline aligned.
