Subject: svcrdma: Avoid releasing a page in svc_xprt_release()
Patch-mainline: v4.19-rc1
Git-commit: a53d5cb0646a12586ae45c892c7a411d47ee1a1d
References: bsc#1103992 FATE#326009

svc_xprt_release() invokes svc_free_res_pages(), which releases
pages between rq_respages and rq_next_page.

Historically, the RPC/RDMA transport has set these two pointers to
be different by one, which means:

- one page gets released when svc_recv returns 0. This normally
happens whenever one or more RDMA Reads need to be dispatched to
complete construction of an RPC Call.

- one page gets released after every call to svc_send.

In both cases, this released page is immediately refilled by
svc_alloc_arg. There does not seem to be a reason for releasing this
page.

To avoid this unnecessary memory allocator traffic, set rq_next_page
more carefully.
