[PATCH net-next v3 00/13] net: page_pool: add netlink-based introspection

We recently started to deploy newer kernels / drivers at Meta,
making significant use of page pools for the first time.
We immediately run into page pool leaks both real and false positive
warnings. As Eric pointed out/predicted there's no guarantee that
applications will read / close their sockets so a page pool page
may be stuck in a socket (but not leaked) forever. This happens
a lot in our fleet. Most of these are obviously due to application
bugs but we should not be printing kernel warnings due to minor
application resource leaks.

Conversely the page pool memory may get leaked at runtime, and
we have no way to detect / track that, unless someone reconfigures
the NIC and destroys the page pools which leaked the pages.

The solution presented here is to expose the memory use of page
pools via netlink. This allows for continuous monitoring of memory
used by page pools, regardless if they were destroyed or not.
Sample in patch 15 can print the memory use and recycling
efficiency:

$ ./page-pool
    eth0[2]	page pools: 10 (zombies: 0)
		refs: 41984 bytes: 171966464 (refs: 0 bytes: 0)
		recycling: 90.3% (alloc: 656:397681 recycle: 89652:270201)

v3:
 - ID is still here, can't decide if it matters
 - rename destroyed -> detach-time, good enough?
 - fix build for netsec
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231121000048.789613-1-kuba@kernel.org (local)
 - hopefully fix build with PAGE_POOL=n
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231024160220.3973311-1-kuba@kernel.org/ (local)
 - The main change compared to the RFC is that the API now exposes
   outstanding references and byte counts even for "live" page pools.
   The warning is no longer printed if page pool is accessible via netlink.
