This patch adds buffer recycling support for unaligned buffers. Since we don't mask the addr to 2k at umem_reg in unaligned mode, we need to make sure we give back the correct (original) addr to the fill queue. We achieve this using the new descriptor format and associated masks. The new format uses the upper 16-bits for the offset and the lower 48-bits for the addr. Since we have a field for the offset, we no longer need to modify the actual address. As such, all we have to do to get back the original address is mask for the lower 48 bits (i.e. strip the offset and we get the address on it's own).

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 Restructured Text 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.
