ftrace: Reduce size of function graph entries
Currently ftrace_graph_ent{,_entry} and ftrace_graph_ret{,_entry} struct can have padding bytes at the end due to alignment in 64-bit data type. As these data are recorded so frequently, those paddings waste non-negligible space. As the ring buffer maintains alignment properly for each architecture, just to remove the extra padding using 'packed' attribute. ftrace_graph_ent_entry: 24 -> 20 ftrace_graph_ret_entry: 48 -> 44 Also I moved the 'overrun' field in struct ftrace_graph_ret to minimize the padding in the middle. Tested on x86_64 only.
