Prepare one reusable ZONE_DEVICE head-page template through the existing slow path, refresh the PFN-dependent fields in that template before each copy, and memcpy it into each destination page. The optimized path assigns _refcount through the copied template, so keep it disabled when the page_ref_set tracepoint is enabled. This patch accelerates head-page initialization. The pfns_per_compound == 1 case gets the full benefit here, compound tails are handled in the next patch. Tested in a VM with a 100 GB fsdax namespace device configured with map=dev on Intel Ice Lake server. This test exercises the nd_pmem rebind path (pfns_per_compound == 1). Test procedure: Rebind the nd_pmem driver 30 times and collect the memmap initialization time from the pr_debug() output of memmap_init_zone_device(). Base(v7.2-rc1): First binding: 1456 ms Average of subsequent rebinds: 244.28 ms With this patch and its prerequisites applied: First binding: 1440 ms Average of subsequent rebinds: 217.19 ms This reduces the average rebind time from 244.28 ms to 217.19 ms, or about 11%.
