    allocate inpcb aligned to cachelines
    
    The inpcb struct is one of the most heavily utilized in the kernel
    on a busy network server.  By aligning it to a cacheline
    boundary, we can ensure that closely related fields in the inpcb
    and tcbcb can be predictably located on the same cacheline.  rrs
    has already done a lot of this work to put related fields on the
    same line for the tcbcb.
    
    In combination with a forthcoming patch to align the start of the tcpcb,
    we see a roughly 3% reduction in CPU use on a busy web server serving
    traffic over roughly 50,000 TCP connections.
