There are more new APIs calling __page_frag_cache_refill() in
this patchset, which may cause compiler not being able to inline
__page_frag_cache_refill() into __page_frag_alloc_va_align().
Not being able to do the inlining seems to casue some notiable
performance degradation in arm64 system with 64K PAGE_SIZE after
adding new API calling __page_frag_cache_refill().
It seems there is about 24Bytes binary size increase for
__page_frag_cache_refill() and __page_frag_cache_refill() in
arm64 system with 64K PAGE_SIZE. By doing the gdb disassembling,
It seems we can have more than 100Bytes decrease for the binary
size by using __alloc_pages() to replace alloc_pages_node(), as
there seems to be some unnecessary checking for nid being
NUMA_NO_NODE, especially when page_frag is still part of the mm
system.
