Subject: [PATCH net-next v17 00/14] Replace page_frag with page_frag_cache for sk_page_frag()

After [1], there are still two implementations for page frag:

1. mm/page_alloc.c: net stack seems to be using it in the
   rx part with 'struct page_frag_cache' and the main API
   being page_frag_alloc_align().
2. net/core/sock.c: net stack seems to be using it in the
   tx part with 'struct page_frag' and the main API being
   skb_page_frag_refill().

This patchset tries to unfiy the page frag implementation
by replacing page_frag with page_frag_cache for sk_page_frag()
first. net_high_order_alloc_disable_key for the implementation
in net/core/sock.c doesn't seems matter that much now as pcp
is also supported for high-order pages:
commit 44042b449872 ("mm/page_alloc: allow high-order pages to
be stored on the per-cpu lists")

As the related change is mostly related to networking, so
targeting the net-next. And will try to replace the rest
of page_frag in the follow patchset.

After this patchset:
1. Unify the page frag implementation by taking the best out of
   two the existing implementations: we are able to save some space
   for the 'page_frag_cache' API user, and avoid 'get_page()' for
   the old 'page_frag' API user.
2. Future bugfix and performance can be done in one place, hence
   improving maintainability of page_frag's implementation.

    delta        -3827 |      -3839        +12         +0

Performance validation:
1. Using micro-benchmark ko added in patch 1 to test aligned and
   non-aligned API performance impact for the existing users, there
   is no notiable performance degradation. Instead we seems to have
   some major performance boot for both aligned and non-aligned API
   after switching to ptr_ring for testing, respectively about 200%
   and 10% improvement in arm64 server as below.

2. Use the below netcat test case, we also have some minor
   performance boot for replacing 'page_frag' with 'page_frag_cache'
   after this patchset.
   server: taskset -c 32 nc -l -k 1234 > /dev/null
   client: perf stat -r 200 -- taskset -c 0 head -c 20G /dev/zero | taskset -c 1 nc 127.0.0.1 1234

In order to avoid performance noise as much as possible, the testing
is done in system without any other load and have enough iterations to
prove the data is stable enough, complete log for testing is below:

perf stat -r 200 -- insmod ./page_frag_test.ko test_push_cpu=16 test_pop_cpu=17 test_alloc_len=12 nr_test=51200000
perf stat -r 200 -- insmod ./page_frag_test.ko test_push_cpu=16 test_pop_cpu=17 test_alloc_len=12 nr_test=51200000 test_align=1
taskset -c 32 nc -l -k 1234 > /dev/null
perf stat -r 200 -- taskset -c 0 head -c 20G /dev/zero | taskset -c 1 nc 127.0.0.1 1234
