Subject: [net-next PATCH 1/6] net: Add skb_free_frag to replace use of
 put_page in freeing skb->head

This change adds a function called skb_free_frag which is meant to
compliment the function __alloc_page_frag.  The general idea is to enable a
more lightweight version of page freeing since we don't actually need all
the overhead of a put_page, and we don't quite fit the model of __free_pages.

The model for this is based off of __free_pages since we don't actually
need to deal with all of the cases that put_page handles.  I incorporated
the virt_to_head_page call and compound_order into the function as it
actually allows for a signficant size reduction by reducing code
duplication.

In order to enable the function it was necessary to move __free_pages_ok
from being a statically defined function so that I could use it in
skbuff.c.
