svcrdma: Simplify svc_rdma_recv_ctxt_put
Currently svc_rdma_recv_ctxt_put's callers have to know whether they want to free the ctxt's pages or not. This means the human developers have to know when and why to set that free_pages argument. Instead, the ctxt should carry that information with it so that svc_rdma_recv_ctxt_put does the right thing no matter who is calling. We want to keep track of the number of pages in the Receive buffer separately from the number of pages pulled over by RDMA Read. This is so that the correct number of pages can be freed properly and that number is well-documented. So now, rc_hdr_count is the number of pages consumed by head[0] (ie., the page index where the Read chunk should start); and rc_page_count is always the number of pages that need to be released when the ctxt is put. The @free_pages argument is no longer needed. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>
