Shave 32 bytes off (the 64-bit) shmem_inode_info. There was a 4-byte pahole after stop_eviction, better filled by fsflags. And the 24-byte dir_offsets can only be used by directories, whereas shrinklist and swaplist only by shmem_mapping() inodes (regular files or long symlinks): so put those into a union. No change in mm/shmem.c is required for this.
