Add a couple intuitive helpers to hide Rx buffer implementation details in the library and not multiplicate it between drivers. The settings are sorta optimized for 100G+ NICs, but nothing really HW-specific here. Use the new page_pool_dev_alloc() to dynamically switch between split-page and full-page modes depending on MTU, page size, required headroom etc. For example, on x86_64 with the default driver settings each page is shared between 2 buffers. Turning on XDP (not in this series) -> increasing headroom requirement pushes truesize out of 2048 boundary, leading to that each buffer starts getting a full page. The "ceiling" limit is %PAGE_SIZE, as only order-0 pages are used to avoid compound overhead. For the above architecture, this means maximum linear frame size of 3712 w/o XDP. Not that &libeth_buf_queue is not a complete queue/ring structure for now, rather a shim, but eventually the libeth-enabled drivers will move to it, with iavf being the first one.

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.
