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.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
