The culprit of the wasted memory is ->s_blockgroup_lock which can be as big as 16 KB when NR_CPUS >= 32. To fix that, allocate ->s_blockgroup_lock, which fits nicely in a order 2 page in the worst case, separately. This shinks down struct ext4_sb_info enough to fit a 2 KB slab cache so now we allocate 16 KB + 2 KB instead of 32 KB saving 14 KB of memory.
