Right now, various fields in struct request are just scattered throughout the struct. This makes for bad cache behaviour. This patch puts commonly referenced together fiels in the same cache lines and also removes the prefetches in deadline_merge(). The latter was actually hurting performance here now that struct request is sanely laid out wrt cache. This is worth ~40% less deadline_merge() runtime during disk intensive tests!
