[PATCH] HID: Reorder fields in 'struct hid_input'

[Christophe JAILLET]

Group some variables based on their sizes to reduce hole and avoid padding.
On x86_64, this shrinks the size of 'struct hid_input'
from 72 to 64 bytes.

It saves a few bytes of memory and is more cache-line friendly.

Using pahole

Before:
======
struct hid_input {
	struct list_head           list;                 /*     0    16 */
	struct hid_report *        report;               /*    16     8 */
	struct input_dev *         input;                /*    24     8 */
	const char  *              name;                 /*    32     8 */
	bool                       registered;           /*    40     1 */

	/* XXX 7 bytes hole, try to pack */

	struct list_head           reports;              /*    48    16 */
	/* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */
	unsigned int               application;          /*    64     4 */

	/* size: 72, cachelines: 2, members: 7 */
	/* sum members: 61, holes: 1, sum holes: 7 */
	/* padding: 4 */
	/* last cacheline: 8 bytes */
};


After:
=====
struct hid_input {
	struct list_head           list;                 /*     0    16 */
	struct hid_report *        report;               /*    16     8 */
	struct input_dev *         input;                /*    24     8 */
	const char  *              name;                 /*    32     8 */
	struct list_head           reports;              /*    40    16 */
	unsigned int               application;          /*    56     4 */
	bool                       registered;           /*    60     1 */

	/* size: 64, cachelines: 1, members: 7 */
	/* padding: 3 */
};
