net: align sk_refcnt on 128 bytes boundary

sk->sk_refcnt is dirtied for every TCP/UDP incoming packet.
This is a performance issue if multiple cpus hit a common socket,
or multiple sockets are chained due to SO_REUSEPORT.

By moving sk_refcnt 8 bytes further, first 128 bytes of sockets
are mostly read. As they contain the lookup keys, this has
a considerable performance impact, as cpus can cache them.

These 8 bytes are not wasted, we use them as a place holder
for various fields, depending on the socket type.

Tested:
 SYN flood hitting a 16 RX queues NIC.
 TCP listener using 16 sockets and SO_REUSEPORT
 and SO_INCOMING_CPU for proper siloing.

 Could process 6.0 Mpps SYN instead of 4.2 Mpps

 Kernel profile looked like :
    11.68%  [kernel]  [k] sha_transform
     6.51%  [kernel]  [k] __inet_lookup_listener
     5.07%  [kernel]  [k] __inet_lookup_established
     4.15%  [kernel]  [k] memcpy_erms
     3.46%  [kernel]  [k] ipt_do_table
     2.74%  [kernel]  [k] fib_table_lookup
     2.54%  [kernel]  [k] tcp_make_synack
     2.34%  [kernel]  [k] tcp_conn_request
     2.05%  [kernel]  [k] __netif_receive_skb_core
     2.03%  [kernel]  [k] kmem_cache_alloc
