kobject: Reorder fields in 'struct kobject'
Group some variables based on their sizes to reduce hole and avoid padding. On x86_64, this shrinks the size of 'struct kobject' from 256 to 244 bytes. This structure is often included in some other structures. So these other structures will also benefit from this 8 bytes saving. This is especially nice for structure like 'cma_kobject' or 'class_dir' that are now 256 bytes long. When they are kzalloc()'ed, 256 bytes are allocated, instead of 512.
