Add a function to allocate rdata without allocating pages for data
transfer. This gives the caller an option to pass a number of pages
that point to the data buffer.

rdata is still reponsible for free those pages after it's done.

"Caller" is still responsible? Or is the rdata somehow freeing itself
via another mechanism?

Technically speaking, these are syntactically equivalent. It may not
be worth changing this historic definition.
