Taskstats fix the structure members alignment issue

We broke the the alignment of members of taskstats to the 8 byte boundary
with the CSA patches.  In the current kernel, the taskstats structure is
not suitable for use by 32 bit applications in a 64 bit kernel.

This is one way to solve the problem without re-arranging structure members
is to pack the structure.  The patch adds an __attribute__((aligned(8))) to
the taskstats structure members so that 32 bit applications using taskstats
can work with a 64 bit kernel.

Using __attribute__((packed)) would break the 64 bit alignment of members.

The fix was tested on x86_64. After the fix, we got
