How about something like below? __page_frag_cache_refill() and
__page_frag_cache_reuse() does what their function name suggests
as much as possible, __page_frag_cache_reload() is added to avoid
new APIs duplicating similar pattern as much as possible, also
avoid fetching size multiple times multiple ways as much as possible.
