Please could you split this patch up. It is rather large and hard to
review. I think you can first add support for the page pool, and then
add XDP support, for example. 

I would be interesting to see how the page pool helps performance for
normal traffic, since that is what most people use it for. And for a
range of devices, since we need to make sure it does not cause any
regressions for older devices.
