net: keep name_hlist close to name
__dev_get_by_name() is slow because pm_qos_req has been inserted between name[] and name_hlist, adding cache misses. pm_qos_req has nothing to do at the beginning of struct net_device Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
