Is there a reason the NUMA_NO_NODE is used here instead of
dev_to_node(napi->dev->dev.parent)?

Is there a reason why page_pool_dma_sync_for_cpu() is still used when
page_pool_create() is called with PP_FLAG_DMA_SYNC_DEV flag? Isn't syncing
already handled in page_pool core when when PP_FLAG_DMA_SYNC_DEV flag is
set?
