Simplify the pool allocation code somewhat by merging loop arguments used by multiple functions together in a struct and simplifying the loop. Also add documentation. This hopefully makes the behaviour of the allocation loop simplier to understand, but above all paves the way for upcoming restore-while-allocating functionality. There are no functional changes, but the "allow_pools" bool introduced to keep current functionality could be removed as a follow up, which would enable using write-back cached pools when allocating memory for other caching modes, rather than to resort to allocating from the system directly. v15: - Introduce this patch to simplify the upcoming patch that introduces restore while allocating.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
