Since this is not really a device with all capabilities, this test
ensures that it has *enough* to make it through the data path
without causing unwanted side-effects (read crash!).

Use blackhole_netdev instead of 'lo' device with lower MTU when marking
dst "dead".

Create a blackhole net device that can be used for "dead"
dst entries instead of loopback device. This blackhole device differs
from loopback in few aspects: (a) It's not per-ns. (b) MTU on this
device is ETH_MIN_MTU (c) The xmit function is essentially kfree_skb().
and (d) since it's not registered it won't have ifindex.
Lower MTU effectively make the device not pass the MTU check during
the route check when a dst associated with the skb is dead.

Remove unneeded memset as alloc_etherdev is using kvzalloc which uses
__GFP_ZERO flag

The interface only supports 1 Tx queue so locking is introduced on
the Tx queue if XDP is enabled to make sure .ndo_start_xmit and
.ndo_xdp_xmit won't corrupt Tx ring

Since the dma direction is stored in page pool params, offer an API
helper for driver that choose not to keep track of it locally

Use page_pool and it's DMA mapping capabilities for Rx buffers instead
of netdev/napi_alloc_frag()
Although this will result in a slight performance penalty on small sized
packets (~10%) the use of the API will allow to easily add XDP support.
The penalty won't be visible in network testing i.e ipef/netperf etc, it
only happens during raw packet drops.
Furthermore we intend to add recycling capabilities on the API
in the future. Once the recycling is added the performance penalty will
go away.
The only 'real' penalty is the slightly increased memory usage, since we
now allocate a page per packet instead of the amount of bytes we need +
skb metadata (difference is roughly 2kb per packet).
With a minimum of 4BG of RAM on the only SoC that has this NIC the
extra memory usage is negligible (a bit more on 64K pages)
