[PATCH 1/2] memory page_alloc zonelist caching speedup aligncache revert

[Paul Jackson, Paul Jackson]

Revert the patch:
  memory page_alloc zonelist caching speedup aligncache

Thanks to a suggestion by Rohit Seth, there's a better
way to do this, just by reordering some struct members.

Andrew - I'm guessing that you will squash this patch together
         with the patch it reverts:
                memory page_alloc zonelist caching speedup aligncache
         and then throw the resulting empty patch out.

         Or just throw the reverted patch out.  Whatever.
