We want to get rid of struct page references outside the internal allocator implementation. The free list has the driver open code something like: list_add_tail(&virt_to_page(ptr)->lru, freelist); Move the above into a small inline and make the freelist into a wrapper type 'struct iommu_pages_list' so that the compiler can help check all the conversion. This struct has also proven helpful in some future ideas to convert to a singly linked list to get an extra pointer in the struct page, and to signal that the pages should be freed with RCU. Use a temporary _Generic so we don't need to rename the free function as the patches progress.

README
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.
