      page_pool: convert to use netmem · 4dec64c5
      Mina Almasry authored
      Abstract the memory type from the page_pool so we can later add support
      for new memory types. Convert the page_pool to use the new netmem type
      abstraction, rather than use struct page directly.
      
      As of this patch the netmem type is a no-op abstraction: it's always a
      struct page underneath. All the page pool internals are converted to
      use struct netmem instead of struct page, and the page pool now exports
      2 APIs:
      
      1. The existing struct page API.
      2. The new struct netmem API.
      
      Keeping the existing API is transitional; we do not want to refactor all
      the current drivers using the page pool at once.
      
      The netmem abstraction is currently a no-op. The page_pool uses
      page_to_netmem() to convert allocated pages to netmem, and uses
      netmem_to_page() to convert the netmem back to pages to pass to mm APIs,
      
      Follow up patches to this series add non-paged netmem support to the
      page_pool. This change is factored out on its own to limit the code
      churn to this 1 patch, for ease of code review.
