Merge branch 'net-netsec-Add-XDP-Support'

Ilias Apalodimas says:

====================
net: netsec: Add XDP Support

This is a respin of https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg526066.html


Since page_pool API fixes are merged into net-next we can now safely use
it's DMA mapping capabilities.

First patch changes the buffer allocation from napi/netdev_alloc_frag()
to page_pool API. Although this will lead to slightly reduced performance
(on raw packet drops only) we can use the API for XDP buffer recycling.
Another side effect is a slight increase in memory usage, due to using a
single page per packet.

The second patch adds XDP support on the driver.
There's a bunch of interesting options that come up due to the single
Tx queue.
Locking is needed(to avoid messing up the Tx queues since ndo_xdp_xmit
and the normal stack can co-exist). We also need to track down the
'buffer type' for TX and properly free or recycle the packet depending
on it's nature.

Changes since RFC:
- Bug fixes from Jesper and Maciej
- Added page pool API to retrieve the DMA direction

Changes since v1:
- Use page_pool_free correctly if xdp_rxq_info_reg() failed
