net-rfs: fix false sharing accessing sd->input_queue_head
sd->input_queue_head is incremented for each processed packet in process_backlog(), and read from other cpus performing Out Of Order avoidance in get_rps_cpu() Moving this field in a separate cache line keeps it mostly hot for the cpu in process_backlog(), as other cpus will only read it. In a stress test, process_backlog() was consuming 6.80 % of cpu cycles, and the patch reduced the cost to 0.65 % Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Acked-by: Tom Herbert <tom@herbertland.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
