Thanks Pekka.

Well, I didn't took any numbers, because I don't consider the whole work 
any close to final form, but I wanted people to comment anyway.

In particular, I intend to use the same trick I used for tcp sock 
buffers here for this case - (static_branch()), so the performance hit 
should come from two pointers in the kmem_cache structure - and I 
believe it is possible to remove one of them.

I can definitely measure when I implement that, but I think it is 
reasonable to expect not that much of a hit.
