Jesper recently removed page_pool_destroy() (from driver invocation) and moved shutdown and free of page_pool into xdp_rxq_info_unreg(), in-order to handle in-flight packets/pages. This created an asymmetry in drivers create/destroy pairs. This patch reintroduce page_pool_destroy and add page_pool user refcnt. This serves the purpose to simplify drivers error handling as driver now drivers always calls page_pool_destroy() and don't need to track if xdp_rxq_info_reg_mem_model() was unsuccessful. This could be used for a special cases where a single RX-queue (with a single page_pool) provides packets for two net_device'es, and thus needs to register the same page_pool twice with two xdp_rxq_info structures. This patch is primarily to ease API usage for drivers. The recently merged netsec driver, actually have a bug in this area, which is solved by this API change. This patch is a modified version of Ivan Khoronzhuk's original patch.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
