mm: memcg: add cacheline padding after lruvec in mem_cgroup_per_node
Oliver Sand reported a performance regression caused by commit 98c9daf ("mm: memcg: guard memcg1-specific members of struct mem_cgroup_per_node"), which puts some fields of the mem_cgroup_per_node structure under the CONFIG_MEMCG_V1 config option. Apparently it causes a false cache sharing between lruvec and lru_zone_size members of the structure. Fix it by adding an explicit padding after the lruvec member. Even though the padding is not required with CONFIG_MEMCG_V1 set, it seems like the introduced memory overhead is not significant enough to warrant another divergence in the mem_cgroup_per_node layout, so the padding is added unconditionally.
