I gave it a try to split it, and something as below come out:

As the 'helpers.h' is not really useful when splitting, so only
'page_pool_types.h' is added, and include 'page_pool_types.h' in
'page_pool.h', does it make sense?

As Alexander is sending a new RFC for the similar problem, I think
we need to align on which is the better way to solve the problem.
