Subject: [PATCH] tracing: remove holes in events

There are some holes in the event definitions, spaces are wasted. Based
on the analysis result of pahole and event format files, 22 events have
more than one hole. To change less and fix worst, 5 events are picked
up and fixed in this patch according the following rules.

Rules:

- try not to affect reading habit and understanding of the fields;
- can be completely fixed (all holes are removed);

NOTES:

- changing the order of event fields breaks API compatibility,
programs should parse and determine the real data order at runtime,
instead of hard-coded the order of fields;
- reduce holes as much as possible when adding / modifying;

Summary (#event_name #before -> #after):

1. net_dev_start_xmit
5 holes (10 bytes) -> 0

2. net_dev_rx_verbose_template
6 holes (17 bytes) -> 0

3. tcp_probe
3 holes (8 bytes) -> 0

4. qdisc_dequeue
2 holes (8 bytes) -> 0

5. rpc_xdr_alignment
2 holes (8 bytes) -> 0

If all the above are owned by networking, then this patch needs to go
through the networking tree.
