Turns out __free_pages_ok() is static and I'd rather not touch
mm/page_alloc.c in my back-port.
Since you say the error condition is rare, I think I'll go with
the code that 181edb2bfa22b replaced (put_page, IIUC).
#include <linux/version.h>
#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(4,2,0)
#define skb_free_frag(data) put_page(virt_to_head_page(data))
#else
#error DELETE ME NOW (see commit 181edb2bfa22b)
#endif
Alexander, does that look correct?
Regards.
