Looking at perf-report and ASM-code for __alloc_pages_bulk() it is clear that the code activated is suboptimal. The compiler guesses wrong and places unlikely code at the beginning. Due to the use of WARN_ON_ONCE() macro the UD2 asm instruction is added to the code, which confuse the I-cache prefetcher in the CPU.

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 Restructured Text 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.
