btrfs: reorder some members of struct btrfs_delayed_ref_head

Currently struct delayed_ref_head has its 'bytenr' and 'href_node' members
in different cache lines (even on a release, non-debug, kernel). This is
not optimal because when iterating the red black tree of delayed ref heads
for inserting a new delayed ref head (htree_insert()) we have to pull in 2
cache lines of delayed ref heads we find in a patch, one for the tree node
(struct rb_node) and another one for the 'bytenr' field. The same applies
when searching for an existing delayed ref head (find_ref_head()).
On a release (non-debug) kernel, the structure also has two 4 bytes holes,
which makes it 8 bytes longer than necessary. Its current layout is the
following:

  struct btrfs_delayed_ref_head {
          u64                        bytenr;               /*     0     8 */
          u64                        num_bytes;            /*     8     8 */
          refcount_t                 refs;                 /*    16     4 */

          /* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

          struct mutex               mutex;                /*    24    32 */
          spinlock_t                 lock;                 /*    56     4 */

          /* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

          /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */
          struct rb_root_cached      ref_tree;             /*    64    16 */
          struct list_head           ref_add_list;         /*    80    16 */
          struct rb_node             href_node __attribute__((__aligned__(8))); /*    96    24 */
          struct btrfs_delayed_extent_op * extent_op;      /*   120     8 */
          /* --- cacheline 2 boundary (128 bytes) --- */
          int                        total_ref_mod;        /*   128     4 */
          int                        ref_mod;              /*   132     4 */
          unsigned int               must_insert_reserved:1; /*   136: 0  4 */
          unsigned int               is_data:1;            /*   136: 1  4 */
          unsigned int               is_system:1;          /*   136: 2  4 */
          unsigned int               processing:1;         /*   136: 3  4 */

          /* size: 144, cachelines: 3, members: 15 */
          /* sum members: 128, holes: 2, sum holes: 8 */
          /* sum bitfield members: 4 bits (0 bytes) */
          /* padding: 4 */
          /* bit_padding: 28 bits */
          /* forced alignments: 1 */
          /* last cacheline: 16 bytes */
  } __attribute__((__aligned__(8)));

This change reorders the 'href_node' and 'refs' members so that we have
the 'href_node' in the same cache line as the 'bytenr' field, while also
eliminating the two holes and reducing the structure size from 144 bytes
down to 136 bytes, so we can now have 30 ref heads per 4K page (on x86_64)
instead of 28. The new structure layout after this change is now:

  struct btrfs_delayed_ref_head {
          u64                        bytenr;               /*     0     8 */
          u64                        num_bytes;            /*     8     8 */
          struct rb_node             href_node __attribute__((__aligned__(8))); /*    16    24 */
          struct mutex               mutex;                /*    40    32 */
          /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) was 8 bytes ago --- */
          refcount_t                 refs;                 /*    72     4 */
          spinlock_t                 lock;                 /*    76     4 */
          struct rb_root_cached      ref_tree;             /*    80    16 */
          struct list_head           ref_add_list;         /*    96    16 */
          struct btrfs_delayed_extent_op * extent_op;      /*   112     8 */
          int                        total_ref_mod;        /*   120     4 */
          int                        ref_mod;              /*   124     4 */
          /* --- cacheline 2 boundary (128 bytes) --- */
          unsigned int               must_insert_reserved:1; /*   128: 0  4 */
          unsigned int               is_data:1;            /*   128: 1  4 */
          unsigned int               is_system:1;          /*   128: 2  4 */
          unsigned int               processing:1;         /*   128: 3  4 */

          /* size: 136, cachelines: 3, members: 15 */
          /* padding: 4 */
          /* bit_padding: 28 bits */
          /* forced alignments: 1 */
          /* last cacheline: 8 bytes */
  } __attribute__((__aligned__(8)));

Running the following fs_mark test shows some significant improvement.

  $ cat test.sh
  #!/bin/bash

  # 15G null block device
  DEV=/dev/nullb0
  MNT=/mnt/nullb0
  FILES=100000
  THREADS=$(nproc --all)
  FILE_SIZE=0

  echo "performance" | \
      tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor

  mkfs.btrfs -f $DEV
  mount -o ssd $DEV $MNT

  OPTS="-S 0 -L 5 -n $FILES -s $FILE_SIZE -t $THREADS -k"
  for ((i = 1; i <= $THREADS; i++)); do
      OPTS="$OPTS -d $MNT/d$i"
  done

  fs_mark $OPTS

  umount $MNT
