fs/address_space: move i_mmap_rwsem to mitigate a false sharing with i_mmap.
In the struct address_space, there is a 32-byte gap between i_mmap and i_mmap_rwsem. Due to the alignment of struct address_space variables to 8 bytes, in certain situations, i_mmap and i_mmap_rwsem may end up in the same CACHE line. While running Unixbench/execl, we observe high false sharing issues when accessing i_mmap against i_mmap_rwsem. We move i_mmap_rwsem after i_private_list, ensuring a 64-byte gap between i_mmap and i_mmap_rwsem. For Intel Silver machines (2 sockets) using kernel v6.8 rc-2, the score of Unixbench/execl improves by ~3.94%, and the score of Unixbench/shell improves by ~3.26%.
