[PATCH] 6/6 cacheline align files_lock

["Martin J. Bligh" <mbligh@aracnet.com>]

I'm getting a lot of cacheline bounce from .text.lock.file_table due to 
false sharing of the cahceline. The following patch just aligns the lock
in it's own cacheline.

only changes in profile under 50 ticks are:

 -4832   -22.2% .text.lock.file_table
 -6357   -12.8% default_idle
-10374    -6.2% total

Difference in results below (note system times as well as elapsed).
