mm: rename __alloc_page_frag to page_frag_alloc and __free_page_frag to page_frag_free
Patch series "Page fragment updates", v4. This patch series takes care of a few cleanups for the page fragments API. First we do some renames so that things are much more consistent. First we move the page_frag_ portion of the name to the front of the functions names. Secondly we split out the cache specific functions from the other page fragment functions by adding the word "cache" to the name. Finally I added a bit of documentation that will hopefully help to explain some of this. I plan to revisit this later as we get things more ironed out in the near future with the changes planned for the DMA setup to support eXpress Data Path. This patch (of 3): This patch renames the page frag functions to be more consistent with other APIs. Specifically we place the name page_frag first in the name and then have either an alloc or free call name that we append as the suffix. This makes it a bit clearer in terms of naming. In addition we drop the leading double underscores since we are technically no longer a backing interface and instead the front end that is called from the networking APIs.
