vmalloc: align nr_vmalloc_pages and vmap_lazy_nr
Currently both atomics share one cache-line: <snip> ... ffffffff83eab400 b vmap_lazy_nr ffffffff83eab408 b nr_vmalloc_pages ... <snip> those are global variables and they are only 8 bytes apart. Since they are modified by different threads this causes a false sharing. This can lead to a performance drop due to unnecessary cache invalidations. After this patch it is aligned to a cache line boundary: <snip> ... ffffffff8260a600 d vmap_lazy_nr ffffffff8260a640 d nr_vmalloc_pages ... <snip> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250417161216.88318-4-urezki@gmail.com Signed-off-by:Uladzislau Rezki (Sony) <urezki@gmail.com> Reviewed-by:
