net: add get_netmem/put_netmem support
Currently net_iovs support only pp ref counts, and do not support a
page ref equivalent.
This is fine for the RX path as net_iovs are used exclusively with the
pp and only pp refcounting is needed there. The TX path however does not
use pp ref counts, thus, support for get_page/put_page equivalent is
needed for netmem.
Support get_netmem/put_netmem. Check the type of the netmem before
passing it to page or net_iov specific code to obtain a page ref
equivalent.
For dmabuf net_iovs, we obtain a ref on the underlying binding. This
ensures the entire binding doesn't disappear until all the net_iovs have
been put_netmem'ed. We do not need to track the refcount of individual
dmabuf net_iovs as we don't allocate/free them from a pool similar to
what the buddy allocator does for pages.
This code is written to be extensible by other net_iov implementers.
get_netmem/put_netmem will check the type of the netmem and route it to
the correct helper:
pages -> [get|put]_page()
dmabuf net_iovs -> net_devmem_[get|put]_net_iov()
new net_iovs -> new helpers
