ext4: naturally align struct ext4_allocation_request

As Ted noted, the ext4_allocation_request isn't well aligned.  Looking
at it with pahole we're wasting space on 64-bit arches:

struct ext4_allocation_request {
        struct inode *             inode;              /*     0     8 */
        ext4_lblk_t                logical;            /*     8     4 */

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

        ext4_fsblk_t               goal;               /*    16     8 */
        ext4_lblk_t                lleft;              /*    24     4 */

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

        ext4_fsblk_t               pleft;              /*    32     8 */
        ext4_lblk_t                lright;             /*    40     4 */

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

        ext4_fsblk_t               pright;             /*    48     8 */
        unsigned int               len;                /*    56     4 */
        unsigned int               flags;              /*    60     4 */
        /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */

        /* size: 64, cachelines: 1, members: 9 */
        /* sum members: 52, holes: 3, sum holes: 12 */
};

Grouping 32-bit members together closes these holes and shrinks the
structure by 12 bytes. which is important since ext4 can get on the
hairy edge of stack overruns.
