    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.
