tty: cumulate and document tty_struct::ctrl* members
Group the ctrl members under a single struct called ctrl. The new struct contains 'pgrp', 'session', 'pktstatus', and 'packet'. 'pktstatus' and 'packet' used to be bits in a bitfield. The struct also contains the lock protecting them to share the same cache line. Note that commit c545b66c6922b (tty: Serialize tcflow() with other tty flow control changes) added a padding to the original bitfield. It was for the bitfield to occupy a whole 64b word to avoid interferring stores on Alpha (cannot we evaporate this arch with weird implications to C code yet?). But it doesn't work as expected as the padding (tty_struct::ctrl_unused) is aligned to a 8B boundary too and occupies some bytes from the next word. So make it reliable by: 1) setting __aligned of the struct -- that aligns the start, and 2) making 'unsigned long unused[0]' as the last member of the struct -- pads the end. Add a kerneldoc comment for this grouped members. Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz> Cc: "David S.
