Subject: [PATCH 1/5] net: Increase the size of skb_frag_t

From: "Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@...radead.org>

To increase commonality between block and net, we are going to replace
the skb_frag_t with the bio_vec.  This patch increases the size of
skb_frag_t on 32-bit machines from 8 bytes to 12 bytes.  The size is
unchanged on 64-bit machines.
