  Group some variables based on their sizes to reduce holes.
On x86_64, this shrinks the size of 'struct devfreq_dev_status' from 72 to
64 bytes.

This structure is used both to allocate static variables or is embedded in
some other structures. In both cases, reducing its size is nice to have.

Moreover, the whole structure now fits in a single cache line on x86_64.

Finally, it makes the order of code match the order of the above kernel
doc.

Using pahole

Before:
======
struct devfreq_dev_profile {
	long unsigned int          initial_freq;         /*     0     8 */
	unsigned int               polling_ms;           /*     8     4 */
	enum devfreq_timer         timer;                /*    12     4 */
	bool                       is_cooling_device;    /*    16     1 */

	/* XXX 7 bytes hole, try to pack */

	int                        (*target)(struct device *, long unsigned int *, u32); /*    24     8 */
	int                        (*get_dev_status)(struct device *, struct devfreq_dev_status *); /*    32     8 */
	int                        (*get_cur_freq)(struct device *, long unsigned int *); /*    40     8 */
	void                       (*exit)(struct device *); /*    48     8 */
	long unsigned int *        freq_table;           /*    56     8 */
	/* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */
	unsigned int               max_state;            /*    64     4 */

	/* size: 72, cachelines: 2, members: 10 */
	/* sum members: 61, holes: 1, sum holes: 7 */
	/* padding: 4 */
	/* last cacheline: 8 bytes */
};


After:
=====
struct devfreq_dev_profile {
	long unsigned int          initial_freq;         /*     0     8 */
	unsigned int               polling_ms;           /*     8     4 */
	enum devfreq_timer         timer;                /*    12     4 */
	int                        (*target)(struct device *, long unsigned int *, u32); /*    16     8 */
	int                        (*get_dev_status)(struct device *, struct devfreq_dev_status *); /*    24     8 */
	int                        (*get_cur_freq)(struct device *, long unsigned int *); /*    32     8 */
	void                       (*exit)(struct device *); /*    40     8 */
	long unsigned int *        freq_table;           /*    48     8 */
	unsigned int               max_state;            /*    56     4 */
	bool                       is_cooling_device;    /*    60     1 */

Applied it.

Thanks.
