Subject: net: shrinks struct net_device
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cd13539b8bc9ae884e6d8d9374c594adff4304e4;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

net: shrinks struct net_device

commit ab95bfe01 (net: replace hooks in __netif_receive_skb) added
rx_handler at wrong place, between two cache line aligned objects,
creating a big hole (a full cache line)

Move rx_handler and rx_handler_data before rx_queue, filling existing
hole.

Move master field in the cache line(s) used in receive path.

This saves 64 bytes (or L1_CACHE_BYTES), and avoids two possible
cache misses in receive path.
