Yunsheng Lin 0c3ce2f502 mm: page_frag: reuse existing space for 'size' and 'pfmemalloc'
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'.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
