+ * pp_ref_count represents the number of outstanding references to the page,

+ * like put_page()). Such references are usually held by page_pool-aware

- * When pp_frag_count reaches 0 we can either recycle the page if the page

+ * "fragment allocators" to save atomic operations - either when they know

+ * return the unused ones with a single atomic dec(), instead of performing
+ * multiple atomic inc() operations.
