/**
 * rds_page_remainder_alloc - build up regions of a message.
 *
 * @scat: Scatter list for message
 * @bytes: the number of bytes needed.
 * @gfp: the waiting behaviour of the allocation
 *
 * @gfp is always ored with __GFP_HIGHMEM.  Callers must be prepared to
 * kmap the pages, etc.
 *
 * If @bytes is at least a full page then this just returns a page from
 * alloc_page().
 *
 * If @bytes is a partial page then this stores the unused region of the
 * page in a per-cpu structure.  Future partial-page allocations may be
 * satisfied from that cached region.  This lets us waste less memory on
 * small allocations with minimal complexity.  It works because the transmit
 * path passes read-only page regions down to devices.  They hold a page
 * reference until they are done with the region.
