0807892ecb xsk: Remove MEM_TYPE_ZERO_COPY and corresponding code
There are no users of MEM_TYPE_ZERO_COPY. Remove all corresponding
code, including the "handle" member of struct xdp_buff.

rfc->v1: Fixed spelling in commit message. (Björn)

2b43470add xsk: Introduce AF_XDP buffer allocation API
In order to simplify AF_XDP zero-copy enablement for NIC driver
developers, a new AF_XDP buffer allocation API is added. The
implementation is based on a single core (single producer/consumer)
buffer pool for the AF_XDP UMEM.

A buffer is allocated using the xsk_buff_alloc() function, and
returned using xsk_buff_free(). If a buffer is disassociated with the
pool, e.g. when a buffer is passed to an AF_XDP socket, a buffer is
said to be released. Currently, the release function is only used by
the AF_XDP internals and not visible to the driver.

Drivers using this API should register the XDP memory model with the
new MEM_TYPE_XSK_BUFF_POOL type.

The API is defined in net/xdp_sock_drv.h.

The buffer type is struct xdp_buff, and follows the lifetime of
regular xdp_buffs, i.e.  the lifetime of an xdp_buff is restricted to
a NAPI context. In other words, the API is not replacing xdp_frames.

In addition to introducing the API and implementations, the AF_XDP
core is migrated to use the new APIs.

rfc->v1: Fixed build errors/warnings for m68k and riscv. (kbuild test
         robot)
         Added headroom/chunk size getter. (Maxim/Björn)

v1->v2: Swapped SoBs. (Maxim)

v2->v3: Initialize struct xdp_buff member frame_sz. (Björn)
        Add API to query the DMA address of a frame. (Maxim)
        Do DMA sync for CPU till the end of the frame to handle
        possible growth (frame_sz). (Maxim)

a71506a4fd xsk: Move driver interface to xdp_sock_drv.h
Move the AF_XDP zero-copy driver interface to its own include file
called xdp_sock_drv.h. This, hopefully, will make it more clear for
NIC driver implementors to know what functions to use for zero-copy
support.

v4->v5: Fix -Wmissing-prototypes by include header file. (Jakub)
