mm: rearrange vm_area_struct for fewer cache misses
The kernel walks the VMA rbtree in various places, including the page
fault path. However, the vm_rb node spanned two cache lines, on 64 bit
systems with 64 byte cache lines (most x86 systems).
Rearrange vm_area_struct a little, so all the information we need to do a
VMA tree walk is in the first cache line.
