sctp: move sent_count to the memory hole in sctp_chunk
Now pahole sctp_chunk, it has 2 memory holes: struct sctp_chunk { struct list_head list; atomic_t refcnt; /* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */ ... long unsigned int prsctp_param; int sent_count; /* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */ This patch is to move up sent_count to fill the 1st one and eliminate the 2nd one. It's not just another struct compaction, it also fixes the "netperf- Throughput_Mbps -37.2% regression" issue when overloading the CPU. Fixes: a6c2f792873a ("sctp: implement prsctp TTL policy") Signed-off-by: Xin Long <lucien.xin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
