====================
Abstract page from net stack

This series is a prerequisite to the devmem TCP series. For a full
snapshot of the code which includes these changes, feel free to check:

https://github.com/mina/linux/commits/tcpdevmem-rfcv5/

Currently these components in the net stack use the struct page
directly:

1. Drivers.
2. Page pool.
3. skb_frag_t.

To add support for new (non struct page) memory types to the net stack, we
must first abstract the current memory type.

Originally the plan was to reuse struct page* for the new memory types,
and to set the LSB on the page* to indicate it's not really a page.
However, for safe compiler type checking we need to introduce a new type.

struct netmem is introduced to abstract the underlying memory type.
Currently it's a no-op abstraction that is always a struct page underneath.
In parallel there is an undergoing effort to add support for devmem to the
net stack:
