RDS: Use page_remainder_alloc() for recv bufs
Instead of splitting up a page into RDS_FRAG_SIZE chunks ourselves, ask rds_page_remainder_alloc() to do it. While it is possible PAGE_SIZE > FRAG_SIZE, on x86en it isn't, so having duplicate "carve up a page into buffers" code seems excessive. The other modification this spawns is the use of a single struct scatterlist in rds_page_frag instead of a bare page ptr. This causes verbosity to increase in some places, and decrease in others. Finally, I decided to unify the lifetimes and alloc/free of rds_page_frag and its page. This is a nice simplification in itself, but will be extra-nice once we come to adding cmason's recycling patch. Signed-off-by: Andy Grover <andy.grover@oracle.com>
