Subject: [PATCH V2 1/3] mm/slub: pack red_left_pad with another int to save a word
Date: Tue,  2 May 2017 22:45:31 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170502144533.10729-2-richard.weiyang@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170502144533.10729-1-richard.weiyang@gmail.com>

On 64bit arch, struct is 8-bytes aligned, so int will occupy a word if it
doesn't sits well.

This patch pack red_left_pad with reserved to save 8 bytes for struct
kmem_cache on a 64bit arch.
