svcrdma: Avoid releasing a page in svc_xprt_release()
svc_xprt_release() invokes svc_free_res_pages(), which releases pages between rq_respages and rq_next_page. Historically, the RPC/RDMA transport has set these two pointers to be different by one, which means: - one page gets released when svc_recv returns 0. This normally happens whenever one or more RDMA Reads need to be dispatched to complete construction of an RPC Call. - one page gets released after every call to svc_send. In both cases, this released page is immediately refilled by svc_alloc_arg. There does not seem to be a reason for releasing this page. To avoid this unnecessary memory allocator traffic, set rq_next_page more carefully. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
