x86: cacheline_align tss_struct

Browse source

The manual padding to align on cacheline size only worked in 32 bit
In 64 bit the structure was not aligned and contained wasted space.

use the compiler ____cachline_aligned to save space & properly align
this structure.

x86_64_default size goes from 9136 -> 8960
x86_64_AMD     size goes from 9136 -> 8896

built & running on 2.6.26-rc8.
