Change the order of members in struct cs_dsp_coeff_ctl to avoid
the compiler having to insert alignment padding bytes. On a x86_64
build this saves 16 bytes per control.

- Pointers are collected to the top of the struct (with the exception of
  priv, as noted below), so that they are inherently aligned.
- The set and enable bitflags are placed together so they can be merged.
- priv is placed at the end of the struct - it is for use by the
  client so it is helpful to make it stand out, and since the compiler
  will always pad the struct size to an alignment multiple putting a
  pointer last won't introduce any more padding.
- struct cs_dsp_alg_region is placed at the end, right before priv, for
  the same reasoning as priv.
