mm: page_counter: re-layout structure to reduce false sharing

When checking a memory cgroup related performance regression [1], from the
perf c2c profiling data, we found high false sharing for accessing 'usage'
and 'parent'.

On 64 bit system, the 'usage' and 'parent' are close to each other, and
easy to be in one cacheline (for cacheline size == 64+ B).  'usage' is
usally written, while 'parent' is usually read as the cgroup's
hierarchical counting nature.

So move the 'parent' to the end of the structure to make sure they
are in different cache lines.

Following are some performance data with the patch, against v5.11-rc1.  [
In the data, A means a platform with 2 sockets 48C/96T, B is a platform of
4 sockests 72C/144T, and if a %stddev will be shown bigger than 2%,
P100/P50 means number of test tasks equals to 100%/50% of nr_cpu]
