net/mlx5e: Store DMA address inside struct page

Browse source 
Use page_pool_set_dma_addr() to store the DMA address of a page inside
struct page, in order to avoid passing struct mlx5e_dma_info to XDP
handlers. Previously, struct mlx5e_dma_info was used to pass both the
DMA address and the page, and it worked well for the single-fragment
case.

When XDP multi buffer is in use, and a fragmented xdp_frame has to be
transmitted, the driver needs to know the DMA addresses of fragments,
however, the array of fragments in struct skb_shared_info doesn't
contain them. In order to pass the DMA addresses, the driver puts them
into struct page itself, which is accessible from the array of fragments
in struct skb_shared_info. The existing XDP handlers are modified to
remove the dependency on struct mlx5e_dma_info.
