block: remove padding from io_context on 64bit builds

Browse source 
On 64 bit builds when CONFIG_BLK_CGROUP=n (the default) this removes 8
bytes of padding from structure io_context and drops its size from 72 to
64 bytes, so needing one fewer cachelines and allowing more objects per
slab in it's kmem_cache.
