[PATCH net-next 3/3] netmem: remove the pp fields from net_iov

From: Byungchul Park <byungchul@sk.com>
Date: 2025-11-21 04:01:04
Also in: io-uring, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Now that the pp fields in net_iov have no users, remove them from
net_iov and clean up.
