net: core: page_pool: add user refcnt and reintroduce page_pool_destroy
Jesper recently removed page_pool_destroy() (from driver invocation)
and moved shutdown and free of page_pool into xdp_rxq_info_unreg(),
in-order to handle in-flight packets/pages. This created an asymmetry
in drivers create/destroy pairs.
This patch reintroduce page_pool_destroy and add page_pool user
refcnt. This serves the purpose to simplify drivers error handling as
driver now drivers always calls page_pool_destroy() and don't need to
track if xdp_rxq_info_reg_mem_model() was unsuccessful.
This could be used for a special cases where a single RX-queue (with a
single page_pool) provides packets for two net_device'es, and thus
needs to register the same page_pool twice with two xdp_rxq_info
structures.
This patch is primarily to ease API usage for drivers. The recently
merged netsec driver, actually have a bug in this area, which is
solved by this API change.
This patch is a modified version of Ivan Khoronzhuk's original patch.
