It seems there is about 24Bytes binary size increase for
__page_frag_cache_refill() after refactoring in arm64 system
with 64K PAGE_SIZE. By doing the gdb disassembling, It seems
we can have more than 100Bytes decrease for the binary size
by using __alloc_pages() to replace alloc_pages_node(), as
there seems to be some unnecessary checking for nid being
NUMA_NO_NODE, especially when page_frag is part of the mm
system.

Currently there is one 'struct page_frag' for every 'struct
sock' and 'struct task_struct', we are about to replace the
'struct page_frag' with 'struct page_frag_cache' for them.
Before begin the replacing, we need to ensure the size of
'struct page_frag_cache' is not bigger than the size of
'struct page_frag', as there may be tens of thousands of
'struct sock' and 'struct task_struct' instances in the
system.
By or'ing the page order & pfmemalloc with lower bits of
'va' instead of using 'u16' or 'u32' for page size and 'u8'
for pfmemalloc, we are able to avoid 3 or 5 bytes space waste.
And page address & pfmemalloc & order is unchanged for the
same page in the same 'page_frag_cache' instance, it makes
sense to fit them together.
After this patch, the size of 'struct page_frag_cache' should be
the same as the size of 'struct page_frag'.

We are about to use page_frag_alloc_*() API to not just
allocate memory for skb->data, but also use them to do
the memory allocation for skb frag too. Currently the
implementation of page_frag in mm subsystem is running
the offset as a countdown rather than count-up value,
there may have several advantages to that as mentioned
in [1], but it may have some disadvantages, for example,
it may disable skb frag coalescing and more correct cache
prefetching
We have a trade-off to make in order to have a unified
implementation and API for page_frag, so use a initial zero
offset in this patch, and the following patch will try to
make some optimization to avoid the disadvantages as much
as possible.
