It should go to net, there will be enough of conflicts otherwise.
mm maintainers, do you like it as a shared branch or can it just
go through the net tree?
It'd also be better to split mm and net changes into a separate
patches. A patch I had before, it might need a rebase though.

Subject: [PATCH] mm: introduce a page type for page pool
Page pool currently uses ->pp_magic aliased with lru.next to check
whether a page belongs to it. Add a new page type, a later patch will
convert page pool to use it.
