[PATCH] net: page_pool: fix refcounting issues with fragmented allocation

[Felix Fietkau]

While testing fragmented page_pool allocation in the mt76 driver, I was able
to reliably trigger page refcount underflow issues, which did not occur with
full-page page_pool allocation.
It appears to me, that handling refcounting in two separate counters
(page->pp_frag_count and page refcount) is racy when page refcount gets
incremented by code dealing with skb fragments directly, and
page_pool_return_skb_page is called multiple times for the same fragment.

Dropping page->pp_frag_count and relying entirely on the page refcount makes
these underflow issues and crashes go away.
