struct file is nicely aligned to 256 bytes on distro configs.
Will this break everything?
$ cat /sys/kernel/slab/filp/object_size
Indeed on the config I'm using here this jumped to 264 bytes
Would it be better to move this to the inode struct? I don't know the
implications of this - any other option?
Well it doesn't actually make much sense to share that at that level
However the above 264 is building from 5.4 without f_sb_err, so I
think master already passed the 256 bytes too ?
