Now that the IAVF driver simply uses dev_alloc_page() + free_page() with
no custom recycling logics and one whole page per frame, it can easily
be switched to using Page Pool API instead.

Any plans to add page pool fragmentation support (i.e. PP_FLAG_PAGE_FRAG) in the future to better support architectures with larger page sizes such as 64KB on ppc64le?
