[PATCH net-next] net: align gnet_stats_basic_cpu struct

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>
Date: 2018-11-17 01:56:25
Subsystem: networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

This structure is small (12 or 16 bytes depending on 64bit
or 32bit kernels), but we do not want it spanning two cache lines.
