[PATCH] rcu/kvfree: Make fill page cache start from krcp->nr_bkv_objs

From: Zqiang
Date: Wed Apr 12 2023 - 10:30:59 EST


The fill_page_cache_func() is invoked and start from zero to
allocate nr_pages of page, if the kfree_rcu_work() executes before
the fill_page_cache_func(), the krcp->nr_bkv_objs is updated before
enter for-loop and equal to nr_pages, since the page is allocated
first, and then check the krcp->nr_bkv_objs in put_cached_bnode(),
this produces a meaningless __get_free_page() call, this commit
therefore make allocate page start from krcp->nr_bkv_objs and
check krcp->nr_bkv_objs before allocate page.
