[RESEND PATCH] ice: access @pp through netmem_desc instead of page

[RESEND PATCH] ice: access @pp through netmem_desc instead of page

[Byungchul Park]

To eliminate the use of struct page in page pool, the page pool users
should use netmem descriptor and APIs instead.

Make ice driver access @pp through netmem_desc instead of page.

Hi Tony and Przemek,

Is there something that I'm missing or something wrong with this?  Your
feedback would be appreciated.  Thanks!

Hi Byungchul,

Nothing wrong. I plan to apply it today.

Thanks,

Hi Tony,

Sorry bothering you but could you tell me where I can see the patch
ready in a tree, maybe yours?  I failed to locate it.

This patch is very important for the project removing pp fields from
struct page to go ahead.  Thanks in advance.

Hi Byungchul,

I actually heard from my validation about this yesterday. They're seeing 
issues on the loopback test. We're working on isolating the problem to 
determine/ensure it wasn't due to this patch. Hopefully that will be 
done soon and, if not the problem, I'll get it sent out shortly thereafter.

Thanks,
Tony
