Here is a tiny upgrade to save some memory by reusing a page for more
chunks if possible, which I think could be considered, after the
testing of the main patch is finished. (There could be also added an
additional freeing of this cached page before socket destruction,
maybe in tcp_splice_read(), if somebody finds good place.)

Thanks,
Jarek P.
