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

When such a structure is allocated, because of the way memory allocation
works, when 72 bytes were requested, 96 bytes were allocated.

So, on x86_64, this change saves 32 bytes per allocation and has the
structure fit in a single cacheline.

Using pahole

Before:
======
struct ceph_snapid_map {
	struct rb_node             node __attribute__((__aligned__(8))); /*     0    24 */
	struct list_head           lru;                  /*    24    16 */
	atomic_t                   ref;                  /*    40     4 */

	/* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

	u64                        snap;                 /*    48     8 */
	dev_t                      dev;                  /*    56     4 */

	/* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

	/* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */
	long unsigned int          last_used;            /*    64     8 */

	/* size: 72, cachelines: 2, members: 6 */
	/* sum members: 64, holes: 2, sum holes: 8 */
	/* forced alignments: 1 */
	/* last cacheline: 8 bytes */
} __attribute__((__aligned__(8)));
