Jens Axboe 7c3fb70f03 block: rearrange a few request fields for better cache layout
Move completion related items (like the call single data) near the
end of the struct, instead of mixing them in with the initial
queueing related fields.

Move queuelist below the bio structures. Then we have all
queueing related bits in the first cache line.

This yields a 1.5-2% increase in IOPS for a null_blk test, both for
sync and for high thread count access. Sync test goes form 975K to
992K, 32-thread case from 20.8M to 21.2M IOPS.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
