Use page_pool for RX buffer allocation in mergeable and small buffer

skb_mark_for_recycle() enables page reuse in the network stack.

Big packets mode is unchanged because it uses page->private for linked
list chaining of multiple pages per buffer, which conflicts with
page_pool's internal use of page->private.
