4dec64c52e page_pool: convert to use netmem
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.

173e7622cc Revert "net: mirror skb frag ref/unref helpers"
This reverts commit a580ea994f.

This revert is to resolve Dragos's report of page_pool leak here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240424165646.1625690-2-dtatulea@nvidia.com/

The reverted patch interacts very badly with commit 2cc3aeb5ec ("skbuff:
Fix a potential race while recycling page_pool packets"). The reverted
commit hopes that the pp_recycle + is_pp_page variables do not change
between the skb_frag_ref and skb_frag_unref operation. If such a change
occurs, the skb_frag_ref/unref will not operate on the same reference type.
In the case of Dragos's report, the grabbed ref was a pp ref, but the unref
was a page ref, because the pp_recycle setting on the skb was changed.

Attempting to fix this issue on the fly is risky. Lets revert and I hope
to reland this with better understanding and testing to ensure we don't
regress some edge case while streamlining skb reffing.

a580ea994f net: mirror skb frag ref/unref helpers
Refactor some of the skb frag ref/unref helpers for improved clarity.

Implement napi_pp_get_page() to be the mirror counterpart of
napi_pp_put_page().

Implement skb_page_ref() to be the mirror of skb_page_unref().

Improve __skb_frag_ref() to become a mirror counterpart of
__skb_frag_unref(). Previously unref could handle pp & non-pp pages,
while the ref could only handle non-pp pages. Now both the ref & unref
helpers can correctly handle both pp & non-pp pages.

Now that __skb_frag_ref() can handle both pp & non-pp pages, remove
skb_pp_frag_ref(), and use __skb_frag_ref() instead.  This lets us
remove pp specific handling from skb_try_coalesce.

Additionally, since __skb_frag_ref() can now handle both pp & non-pp
pages, a latent issue in skb_shift() should now be fixed. Previously
this function would do a non-pp ref & pp unref on potential pp frags
(fragfrom). After this patch, skb_shift() should correctly do a pp
ref/unref on pp frags.

f6d827b180 net: move skb ref helpers to new header
Add a new header, linux/skbuff_ref.h, which contains all the skb_*_ref()
helpers. Many of the consumers of skbuff.h do not actually use any of
the skb ref helpers, and we can speed up compilation a bit by minimizing
this header file.

Additionally in the later patch in the series we add page_pool support
to skb_frag_ref(), which requires some page_pool dependencies. We can
now add these dependencies to skbuff_ref.h instead of a very ubiquitous
skbuff.h
