firewire: reorder struct fw_card for better cache efficiency
topology_map is by far the largest member in struct fw_card. Move it to the very end of the struct so that card pointer dereferences have better chances to hit the CPU cache. This requires to increase the topology_map backing store to the size specified in IEEE 1394, i.e. 256 rather than 255 quadlets. Otherwise the topology_map response handler may access invalid memory.
