Patch 1 fix a possible time window problem for page_pool.
Patch 2 fix the kernel crash problem at iommu_get_dma_domain
reported in [1].

When page_pool_put_unrefed_netmem() is called with allow_direct
being true, there is only a newly added checking overhead
introduced in patch 1, which seem to be no noticeable performance
impact.

When page_pool_put_unrefed_netmem() is called with allow_direct
being false, there is an added rcu read lock overhead introduced in
patch 1, and the overhead is about 13ns using the below test code,
but 'time_bench_page_pool02_ptr_ring' only show about 2ns overhead,
which is about 2% degradation.

+static int time_bench_rcu(
+       struct time_bench_record *rec, void *data)
+{
+       uint64_t loops_cnt = 0;
+       int i;
+
+       time_bench_start(rec);
+       /** Loop to measure **/
+       for (i = 0; i < rec->loops; i++) {
+               rcu_read_lock();
+               loops_cnt++;
+               barrier(); /* avoid compiler to optimize this loop */
+               rcu_read_unlock();
+       }
+       time_bench_stop(rec, loops_cnt);
+       return loops_cnt;
+}

When page_pool need to be refilled from or flushed to the page allocator,
the added overhead is the page_pool_item_add() and page_pool_item_del()
calling overhead, using below patch to enable Jesper's testing running in
arm64, the overhead is 0~20ns, which is quite variable
