Nice!

Let me take it into my tree, I assume it's safe to say it will be
accepted sooner than my patches :D

BTW, what do you think: is it better to have those two includes in the
root include/net/ folder or do something like

include/net/page_pool/
  * types.h
  * <some meaningful name>.h (let's say driver.h)

like it's done e.g. for GPIO (see include/linux/gpio/)?

Thanks,
Olek
