If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Kees Cook commit 2cfe0d3009418a132b93d78642a8059a38fe5944 upstream. The original intent for always adding the anonymous struct in task_struct was to make sure we had compiler coverage. However, this caused pathological padding of 40 bytes at the start of task_struct. Instead, move the anonymous struct to being only used when struct layout randomization is enabled.
