q->flows can be often modified, and q->timer_slack is read mostly.
Exchange the two fields, so that cache line countaining
quantum, initial_quantum, and other critical parameters
stay clean (read-mostly).
Move q->watchdog next to q->stat_throttled
Add comments explaining how the structure is split in
three different parts.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
