[PATCH 4/4] vmalloc: Align nr_vmalloc_pages and vmap_lazy_nr

[Uladzislau Rezki (Sony)]

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>
