Subject[PATCH v3 2/4] fs: Don't need to put list_lru into its own cacheline
Date
The list_lru structure is essentially just a pointer to a table of
per-node LRU lists. Even if CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is defined, the list
field is just used for LRU list registration and shrinker_id is set
at initialization. Those fields won't need to be touched that often.

So there is no point to make the list_lru structures to sit in their
own cachelines.
