Sorry for not remembering the suggestion:(  
In the previous versions of this change I used a global flag per whole
page_pool, just like XSk does for the whole XSk buff pool, then you
proposed to use the lowest bit of ::dma_addr and store it per page, so
that it would be more granular/precise. I tested it and it doesn't
perform worse than global, but in some cases may be beneficial.
FWIW I'd vote to stick to per-page pool. You seem to handle the
sizeof(dma_addr_t) > sizeof(long) case correctly but the code is
growing in complexity, providing no known/measurable benefit.
We can always do this later but for now it seems like a premature
optimization to me.
Yeah, this also seems more logical and optimal to me. Will wait a bit
for a possible reply from Chris and then send the next rev.

Thanks,
Olek
