====================
page_pool: bnxt_en: unlink old page pool in queue api using helper
56ef27e3 unexported page_pool_unlink_napi() and renamed it to
page_pool_disable_direct_recycling(). This is because there was no
in-tree user of page_pool_unlink_napi().
Since then Rx queue API and an implementation in bnxt got merged. In the
bnxt implementation, it broadly follows the following steps: allocate
new queue memory + page pool, stop old rx queue, swap, then destroy old
queue memory + page pool.
The existing NAPI instance is re-used so when the old page pool that is
no longer used but still linked to this shared NAPI instance is
destroyed, it will trigger warnings.
In my initial patches I unlinked a page pool from a NAPI instance
directly. Instead, export page_pool_disable_direct_recycling() and call
that instead to avoid having a driver touch a core struct.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
