net: remove padding from struct socket on 64bit & increase objects/cache
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
remove padding from struct socket reducing its size by 8 bytes.
    
This allows more objects/cache in sock_inode_cache
12 objects/cache when cacheline size is 128 (generic x86_64)
