Subject: [PATCH v8 net-next 2/5] cache: enforce cache groups

Set up build time warnings to safeguard against future header changes of
organized structs.

Warning includes:

1) whether all variables are still in the same cache group
2) whether all the cache groups have the sum of the members size (in the
   maximum condition, including all members defined in configs)

The __cache_group* variables are ignored in kernel-doc check in the
various header files they appear in to enforce the cache groups.
