To eliminate the use of struct page in page pool, the page pool code
should use netmem descriptor and APIs instead.
As part of the work, introduce a netmem API to convert a virtual address
to a head netmem allowing the code to use it rather than the existing
API, virt_to_head_page() for struct page.
