Subject: [PATCHv3 11/12] dmapool: link blocks across pages

From: Keith Busch <kbusch@...nel.org>

The allocated dmapool pages are never freed for the lifetime of the
pool. There is no need for the two level list+stack lookup for finding a
free block since nothing is ever removed from the list. Just use a
simple stack, reducing time complexity to constant.

The implementation inserts the stack linking elements and the dma handle
of the block within itself when freed. This means the smallest possible
dmapool block is increased to at most 16 bytes to accomodate these
fields, but there are no exisiting users requesting a dma pool smaller
than that anyway.

Removing the list has a significant change in performance. Using the
kernel's micro-benchmarking self test:

Before:

  # modprobe dmapool_test
  dmapool test: size:16   blocks:8192   time:57282
  dmapool test: size:64   blocks:8192   time:172562
  dmapool test: size:256  blocks:8192   time:789247
  dmapool test: size:1024 blocks:2048   time:371823
  dmapool test: size:4096 blocks:1024   time:362237

After:

  # modprobe dmapool_test
  dmapool test: size:16   blocks:8192   time:24997
  dmapool test: size:64   blocks:8192   time:26584
  dmapool test: size:256  blocks:8192   time:33542
  dmapool test: size:1024 blocks:2048   time:9022
  dmapool test: size:4096 blocks:1024   time:6045

The module test allocates quite a few blocks that may not accurately
represent how these pools are used in real life. For a more marco level
benchmark, running fio high-depth + high-batched on nvme, this patch
shows submission and completion latency reduced by ~100usec each, 1%
IOPs improvement, and perf record's time spent in dma_pool_alloc/free
were reduced by half.
