Allocate a separate page pool for headers when SHAMPO is enabled. This will be useful for adding support to zc page pool, which has to be different from the headers page pool.
Could you explain why always allocate a separate pool? For bnxt we do it only if ZC is enabled (or system pages are large), see bnxt_separate_head_pool() and page_pool_is_unreadable(). Not sure if page_pool_is_unreadable() existed when this code was written.
- wq_size = BIT(MLX5_GET(wq, wqc, log_wq_sz));
- *pool_size += (rq->mpwqe.shampo->hd_per_wqe * wq_size) /
- MLX5E_SHAMPO_WQ_HEADER_PER_PAGE;

+ {
+ int wq_size = BIT(MLX5_GET(wq, wqc, log_wq_sz));
+ struct page_pool_params pp_params = { };
+ u32 pool_size;A free standing code block? I this it's universally understood to be very poor coding style..
