This patch restructures the per RX queue buffer allocation from page_pool to stmmac_alloc_rx_buffers(). We also rearrange dma_free_rx_skbufs() so that it can be used in init_dma_rx_desc_rings() during freeing of RX buffer in the event of page_pool allocation failure to replace the more efficient method earlier. The replacement is needed to make the RX buffer alloc and free method scalable to XDP ZC xsk_pool alloc and free later.

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.
