Hi Oz,

It's probably not important, but I thought it is worth bringing
to your attention.

The placement of use_act_stats above  puts it on a different
cacheline (on x86_64) to stats. Which does not seem to be idea
as those fields are accessed together.

There is a 4 byte hole immediately above above cookie,
on the same cacheline as stats, which can accommodate use_act_stats.

I believe the same logic applies to this change too.
