Inspired by [1], but use free_unref_page() to replace free_the_page()
instead of __free_pages(), use VM_BUG_ON() to catch that we can use
free_unref_page() directly, also add its own header file.
As the API is only used by the networking, it may make sense to
move it to the networking directory like the page_pool does in the
future if we can make the free_unref_page() callable outside of the
mm subsystem. And we can utilize that to decouple the 'struct page'
in the networking subsystem in the future.

I'm wondering if this page fragment allocator could replace the page
fragment allocator used in powerpc to allocate fragment of pages for
page tables.

From a quick glance, it seems possible. If there are potential users
other than the networking for this API, we can keep it in mm subsystem
for now as this patch does and see how thing will evolve.
