futex_hash() references two global variables: the base pointer futex_queues and the size of the array futex_hashsize. The latter is marked __read_mostly, while the former is not, so they are likely to end up very far from each other. This means that futex_hash() is likely to encounter two cache misses. We could mark futex_queues as __read_mostly as well, but that doesn't guarantee they'll end up next to each other (and even if they do, they may still end up in different cache lines). So put the two variables in a small singleton struct with sufficient alignment and mark that as __read_mostly.
