The following claim seems wrong, too:

Not really. nr_frags *starts* at the message size.
skb_fill_page_desc will fill in the fargment in toskb, and
increment nr_frags until it matches the full size.

I don't see how this chunk changes anything.
It seems you have basically replaced a single loop with
a condition by two loops.
