On x86_64, frag_* fields of struct page_pool are scattered across two cachelines despite the summary size of 24 bytes. All three fields are used in pretty much the same places, but the last field, ::frag_users, is pushed out to the next CL, provoking unwanted false-sharing on hotpath (frags allocation code). There are some holes and cold members to move around. Move frag_* one block up, placing them right after &page_pool_params perfectly at the beginning of CL2. This doesn't do any meaningful to the second block, as those are some destroy-path cold structures, and doesn't do anything to ::alloc_stats, which still starts at 200-byte offset, 8 bytes after CL3 (still fitting into 1 cacheline). On my setup, this yields 1-2% of Mpps when using PP frags actively. When it comes to 32-bit architectures with 32-byte CL: &page_pool_params plus ::pad is 44 bytes, the block taken care of is 16 bytes within one CL, so there should be at least no regressions from the actual change. ::pages_state_hold_cnt is not related directly to that triple, but is paired currently with ::frags_offset and decoupling them would mean either two 4-byte holes or more invasive layout changes.
