module: struct module_ref should contains long fields
module_ref contains two "unsigned int" fields. Thats now too small, since some machines can open more than 2^32 files. Check commit 518de9b39e8 (fs: allow for more than 2^31 files) for reference. We can add an aligned(2 * sizeof(unsigned long)) attribute to force alloc_percpu() allocating module_ref areas in single cache lines.
