Subject: [PATCH] Speed up dma_pool_free()
dma_pool_free() scans for the page to free in the pool list holding the pool
lock. Then it releases the lock basically to acquire it immediately again.
Modify the code to only take the lock once.
This will do some additional loops and computations with the lock held in if
memory debugging is activated. If it is not activated the only new operations
with this lock is one if and one substraction.
