Hi Arnaldo, here's the requested patch that gets rid of the struct alignment
tackling the main source of cacheline bouncing. In addition a small fix to
bogus inputs.

Thanks!

Sebastian noted that overhead for worker thread ops (throughput)
accounting was producing 'perf' to appear in the profiles, consuming
a non-trivial (ie 13%) amount of CPU. This is due to cacheline
bouncing due to the increment of w->ops. We can easily fix this by
just working on a local copy and updating the actual worker once
done running, and ready to show the program summary. There is no
danger of the worker being concurrent, so we can trust that no stale
value is being seen by another thread.

This also gets rid of the unnecesary cache alignment hack; its not
worth it.

This gets rid of oddities such as:

perf bench futex hash -t -4
perf: calloc: Cannot allocate memory

Runtime (and many more) are equally busted, ie run for bogus amounts
of time. Just use the abs, instead of, for example erroring out.
