Yes, I agree, as I also said over IRC (freenode #xdp).

The length (dma_sync_size) API addition to __page_pool_put_page() is
for now confined to this driver (mvneta).  We can postpone the API-name
discussion, as you have promised here (and on IRC) that you will
"address it in another series".  (Guess, given timing, the followup
series and discussion will happen after the merge window...)
