Could you explain why always allocate a separate pool? 
For bnxt we do it only if ZC is enabled (or system pages are large),
see bnxt_separate_head_pool() and page_pool_is_unreadable().

Not sure if page_pool_is_unreadable() existed when this code
was written.

A free standing code block? I this it's universally understood 
to be very poor coding style..
