Hi Eric!
Why keep the pad field? the member to lines down is
__cacheline_aligned, so we shouldn't have to manually
push things out?
struct gnet_stats_queue __percpu *cpu_qstats;
int pad;
refcount_t refcnt;
/*
* For performance sake on SMP, we put highly modified fields at the end
*/
struct sk_buff_head gso_skb ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp;
