xsk: Introduce AF_XDP buffer allocation API
In order to simplify AF_XDP zero-copy enablement for NIC driver developers, a new AF_XDP buffer allocation API is added. The implementation is based on a single core (single producer/consumer) buffer pool for the AF_XDP UMEM. A buffer is allocated using the xsk_buff_alloc() function, and returned using xsk_buff_free(). If a buffer is disassociated with the pool, e.g. when a buffer is passed to an AF_XDP socket, a buffer is said to be released. Currently, the release function is only used by the AF_XDP internals and not visible to the driver. Drivers using this API should register the XDP memory model with the new MEM_TYPE_XSK_BUFF_POOL type. The API is defined in net/xdp_sock_drv.h. The buffer type is struct xdp_buff, and follows the lifetime of regular xdp_buffs, i.e. the lifetime of an xdp_buff is restricted to a NAPI context. In other words, the API is not replacing xdp_frames. In addition to introducing the API and implementations, the AF_XDP core is migrated to use the new APIs. rfc->v1: Fixed build errors/warnings for m68k and riscv. (kbuild test robot) Added headroom/chunk size getter. (Maxim/Björn) v1->v2: Swapped SoBs. (Maxim) v2->v3: Initialize struct xdp_buff member frame_sz. (Björn) Add API to query the DMA address of a frame. (Maxim) Do DMA sync for CPU till the end of the frame to handle possible growth (frame_sz).
