[PATCH net-next v10 02/12] netmem: use netmem_desc instead of page to access ->pp in __netmem_get_pp()

To eliminate the use of the page pool fields in struct page, the page
pool code should use netmem descriptor and APIs instead.
However, __netmem_get_pp() still accesses ->pp via struct page. So
change it to use struct netmem_desc instead, since ->pp no longer will
be available in struct page.
While at it, add a helper, pp_page_to_nmdesc(), that can be used to
extract netmem_desc from page only if it's pp page. For now that
netmem_desc overlays on page, it can be achieved by just casting.
