By "I addressed" I meant that I dropped including page_pool.h from
skbuff.h, as I also had to include dma-mapping.h to page_pool.h and this
implied that half of the kernel started including dma-mapping.h as well
for no profit.

No hard rule, but I don't see a reason for redundant includes. I usually
try to keep include lists as small as possible.
