page_pool: Refactor page_pool to enable fragmenting after allocation
This change is meant to permit a driver to perform "fragmenting" of the
page from within the driver instead of the current model which requires
pre-partitioning the page. The main motivation behind this is to support
use cases where the page will be split up by the driver after DMA instead
of before.
With this change it becomes possible to start using page pool to replace
some of the existing use cases where multiple references were being used
for a single page, but the number needed was unknown as the size could be
dynamic.
For example, with this code it would be possible to do something like
the following to handle allocation:
page = page_pool_alloc_pages();
if (!page)
return NULL;
page_pool_fragment_page(page, DRIVER_PAGECNT_BIAS_MAX);
rx_buf->page = page;
rx_buf->pagecnt_bias = DRIVER_PAGECNT_BIAS_MAX;
Then we would process a received buffer by handling it with:
rx_buf->pagecnt_bias--;
Once the page has been fully consumed we could then flush the remaining
instances with:
if (page_pool_defrag_page(page, rx_buf->pagecnt_bias))
continue;
page_pool_put_defragged_page(pool, page -1, !!budget);
The general idea is that we want to have the ability to allocate a page
with excess fragment count and then trim off the unneeded fragments.
