Patch series "Use per-cpu allocator for !irq requests and prepare for a
bulk allocator", v5.

This series is motivated by a conversation led by Jesper Dangaard Brouer
at the last LSF/MM proposing a generic page pool for DMA-coherent pages.
Part of his motivation was due to the overhead of allocating multiple
order-0 that led some drivers to use high-order allocations and
splitting them.  This is very slow in some cases.

The first two patches in this series restructure the page allocator such
that it is relatively easy to introduce an order-0 bulk page allocator.
A patch exists to do that and has been handed over to Jesper until an
in-kernel users is created.  The third patch prevents the per-cpu
allocator being drained from IPI context as that can potentially corrupt
the list after patch four is merged.  The final patch alters the per-cpu
alloctor to make it exclusive to !irq requests.  This cuts
allocation/free overhead by roughly 30%.

Performance tests from both Jesper and me are included in the patch.

This patch (of 4):

buffered_rmqueue removes a page from a given zone and uses the per-cpu
list for order-0.  This is fine but a hypothetical caller that wanted
multiple order-0 pages has to disable/reenable interrupts multiple
times.  This patch structures buffere_rmqueue such that it's relatively
easy to build a bulk order-0 page allocator.  There is no functional
change.
