Ok, so if we're leaving uapi (and ops) and keep per page/sub-buffer as
is, the rest is resolving uptr -> pages, and passing it to page pool in
a convenient to page pool format (net_iov). I don't see how dmabuf would
help here. Adding dmabuf in the middle (internally wrapping pages) would
add more setup code with the same final result, that is a format that
page pool can work with. And for io_uring it's normal user memory. We'll
have to use dmabuf when we'd want to extend to peer-to-peer and all that
fun, but that's a small fraction of it, and we'll hopefully reuse some
setup helpers from devmem tcp.
