Jesper Dangaard Brouer 7c9e69428d page_pool: add destroy attempts counter and rename tracepoint
When Jonathan change the page_pool to become responsible to its
own shutdown via deferred work queue, then the disconnect_cnt
counter was removed from xdp memory model tracepoint.

This patch change the page_pool_inflight tracepoint name to
page_pool_release, because it reflects the new responsability
better.  And it reintroduces a counter that reflect the number of
times page_pool_release have been tried.

The counter is also used by the code, to only empty the alloc
cache once.  With a stuck work queue running every second and
counter being 64-bit, it will overrun in approx 584 billion
years. For comparison, Earth lifetime expectancy is 7.5 billion
years, before the Sun will engulf, and destroy, the Earth.

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.
