type is 4B already in net-next, so you may want to reorder @type 
with @owner to avoid a hole and increasing the struct size. 
Other than that LGTM!

struct net_iov {
	union {
		struct netmem_desc desc;                 /*     0    48 */
		struct {
			long unsigned int _flags;        /*     0     8 */
			long unsigned int pp_magic;      /*     8     8 */
			struct page_pool * pp;           /*    16     8 */
			long unsigned int _pp_mapping_pad; /*    24     8 */
			long unsigned int dma_addr;      /*    32     8 */
			atomic_long_t pp_ref_count;      /*    40     8 */
		};                                       /*     0    48 */
	};                                               /*     0    48 */
	struct net_iov_area *      owner;                /*    48     8 */
	enum net_iov_type          type;                 /*    56     4 */

	/* size: 64, cachelines: 1, members: 3 */
	/* padding: 4 */
};
