After [1], Only there are two implementations for page frag:
1. mm/page_alloc.c: net stack seems to be using it in the
rx part with 'struct page_frag_cache' and the main API
being page_frag_alloc_align().
2. net/core/sock.c: net stack seems to be using it in the
tx part with 'struct page_frag' and the main API being
skb_page_frag_refill().
This patchset tries to unfiy the page frag implementation
by replacing page_frag with page_frag_cache for sk_page_frag()
first. net_high_order_alloc_disable_key for the implementation
in net/core/sock.c doesn't seems matter that much now have
have pcp support for high-order pages in commit 44042b449872
("mm/page_alloc: allow high-order pages to be stored on the
per-cpu lists").
As the related change is mostly related to networking, so
targeting the net-next. And will try to replace the rest
of page_frag in the follow patchset.
After this patchset, we are not only able to unify the page
frag implementation a little, but seems able to have about
0.5+% performance boost testing by using the vhost_net_test
introduced in [1] and page_frag_test.ko introduced in this
patch.
