Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] net/9p: add a per-client fcall kmem_cache
From: Dominique Martinet <dominique.martinet@....fr>
Having a specific cache for the fcall allocations helps speed up
allocations a bit, especially in case of non-"round" msizes.
The caches will automatically be merged if there are multiple caches
of items with the same size so we do not need to try to share a cache
between different clients of the same size.
Since the msize is negotiated with the server, only allocate the cache
after that negotiation has happened - previous allocations or
allocations of different sizes (e.g. zero-copy fcall) are made with
kmalloc directly.

v2:
- Add a pointer to the cache in p9_fcall to make sure a buffer
allocated with kmalloc gets freed with kfree and vice-versa
This could have been smaller with a bool but this spares having
to look at the client so looked a bit cleaner, I'm expecting this
patch will need a v3 one way or another so I went for the bolder
approach - please say if you think a smaller item is better ; I *think*
nothing relies on this being ordered the same way as the data on the
wire (struct isn't packed anyway) so we can move id after tag and add
another u8 to not have any overhead
- added likely() to cache existence check in allocation, but nothing
for msize check or free because of zc request being of different size
v3:
- defined the userdata region in the cache, as read or write calls can
access the buffer directly (lead to warnings with HARDENED_USERCOPY=y)
I didn't get any comment on v2 for this patch, but I'm still not fully
happy with this in all honesty.
Part of me believes we might be better off always allocating from the
cache even for zero-copy headers, it's a waste of space but the buffers
are there and being reused constantly for non-zc calls, and mixing
kmallocs in could lead to these buffers being really freed and
reallocated all the time instead of reusing the slab buffers
continuously.
That would let me move the likely() for the fast path, with the only
exception being the TVERSION initial call on mount, for which I still
don't have any nice idea on how to handle, using a different size in
p9_client_rpc or prepare_req if the type is TVERSION and I'm really not
happy with that...
