Now that ice uses libeth for managing Rx buffers and supports
configurable header split, it's ready to get support for sending
and receiving packets with unreadable (to the kernel) frags.

Extend libeth just a little bit to allow creating PPs with custom
memory providers and make sure ice works correctly with the netdev
ops locking. Then add the full set of queue_mgmt_ops and don't
unmap unreadable frags on Tx completion.
No perf regressions for the regular flows and no code duplication
implied.

Credits to the fbnic developers, whose code helped me understand
the memory providers and queue_mgmt_ops logics and served as
a reference.

Note: apply to net-next, not Tony's next-queue.

From v3[0]:
* rebase on top of recent Larysa's changes;
* 3/5: fix the last locking inconsistencies (Jakub);
* 3/5: pick a kdoc fix from Tony.

From v2[1]:
* rebase on top of net-next-7.0;
* 3/5: fix [hopefully] all inconsistent locking (Jakub, Tony);
* 4/5: pick a hotfix from Kohei.

From v1[2]:
* rebase on top of the latest next-queue;
* fix a typo 'rxq_ixd' -> 'rxq_idx' (Tony).

Testing hints:
* regular Rx and Tx for regressions;
* <kernel root>/tools/testing/selftests/drivers/net/hw/ contains
  scripts for testing netmem Rx and Tx, namely devmem.py and
  iou-zcrx.py (read the documentation first).

Since recently, page_pool_create() accepts optional stack index of
the Rx queue which the pool will be created for. It can then be
used on control path for stuff like memory providers.
Add the same field to libeth_fq and pass the index from all the
drivers using libeth for managing Rx to simplify implementing MP
support later.
idpf has one libeth_fq per buffer/fill queue and each Rx queue has
two fill queues, but since fill queues can never be shared, we can
store the corresponding Rx queue index there during the
initialization to pass it to libeth.

libeth uses netmems for quite some time already, so in order to
support unreadable frags / memory providers, it only needs to set
PP_FLAG_ALLOW_UNREADABLE_NETMEM when needed.
Also add a couple sanity checks to make sure the driver didn't mess
up the configuration options and, in case when an MP is installed,
return the truesize always equal to PAGE_SIZE, so that
libeth_rx_alloc() will never try to allocate frags. Memory providers
manage buffers on their own and expect 1:1 buffer / HW Rx descriptor
association.

Bonus: mention in the libeth_sqe_type description that
LIBETH_SQE_EMPTY should also be used for netmem Tx SQEs -- they
don't need DMA unmapping.

Queue management ops unconditionally enable netdev locking. The same
lock is taken by default by several NAPI configuration functions,
such as napi_enable() and netif_napi_set_irq().
Request ops locking in advance and make sure we use the _locked
counterparts of those functions to avoid deadlocks, taking the lock
manually where needed (suspend/resume, queue rebuild and resets).

Now ice is ready to get queue_mgmt_ops support. It already has API
to disable/reconfig/enable one particular queue (for XSk). Reuse as
much of its code as possible to implement Rx queue management
callbacks and vice versa -- ice_queue_mem_{alloc,free}() can be
reused during ifup/ifdown to elide code duplication.
With this, ice passes the io_uring zcrx selftests, meaning the Rx
part of netmem/MP support is done.

Advertise netmem Tx support in ice. The only change needed is to set
ICE_TX_BUF_FRAG conditionally, only when skb_frag_is_net_iov() is
false. Otherwise, the Tx buffer type will be ICE_TX_BUF_EMPTY and
the driver will skip the DMA unmapping operation.

Hi Alexander,
After applying this patch (3/5) along with the preceding ones on top of
net-next, I got some WARNING splats when changing the admin state
(up/down) using the ip link command. [1, 2]

Since I haven't looked into this series in detail, I'm reporting the
splats anyway. 
I'm wondering why I haven't seen anyone report this type of issue up to
v3. Maybe there is something wrong with my setup or devices?

Ah, I think I figured out the reason. My adapter accidentally fell into
safe mode. When the adapter is in the safe mode, netdev->queue_mgmt_ops
== NULL and netdev->request_ops_lock == false, so
netdev_assert_locked_or_invisible() complains about not holding the
netdev lock.

Setting netdev->request_ops_lock = true in the safe mode path also
worked fine for me.
