What i previously meant was:

#if (PAGE_SIZE < 8192)
	*rx_buffer_pgcnt = page_count(rx_buffer->page);
#endif

and see below

you could move scope this variable only for the

while (likely(total_rx_packets < (unsigned int)budget))

loop and init this to 0. then you could drop the helper function you've
added. and BTW the page_count is not being used for big pages but i agree
that it's better to have it set to 0.
