I noticed a contention on udp_memory_allocated on regular UDP applications.
While tcp_memory_allocated is seldom used, it appears each incoming UDP frame
is currently touching udp_memory_allocated when queued, and when received by
application.
One possible solution is to use sk_mem_reclaim_partial() instead of
sk_mem_reclaim(), so that we keep a small reserve (less than one page)
of memory for each UDP socket.
We did something very similar on TCP side in commit
9993e7d313e80bdc005d09c7def91903e0068f07
([TCP]: Do not purge sk_forward_alloc entirely in tcp_delack_timer())
A more complex solution would need to convert prot->memory_allocated to
use a percpu_counter with batches of 64 or 128 pages.
