[PATCH v4 net-next 8/9] net: add a hardware buffer management helper API

This basic implementation allows to share code between driver using hardware buffer management. As the code is hardware agnostic, there is few helpers, most of the optimization brought by the an HW BM has to be done at driver level. Signed-off-by: Gregory CLEMENT
