Interesting, what is the netmem type? I was thinking about extending
page pool for other mem providers and what came to mind was either
optionally replacing the free / alloc with a function pointer:

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/578ebda5607781c0abb26c1feae7ec8b83840768

or wrapping the PP calls with static inlines which can direct to 
a different implementation completely (like zctap / io_uring zc).

Former is better for huge pages, latter is better for IO mem
(peer-to-peer DMA). I wonder if you have different use case which
requires a different model :(
