Public bug reported:

SRU Justification

[Impact]

* Microsoft requested patch to improve RX buffer handling in MANA driver
(LP: #2121570), however the page_pool implementation in mainline 5.15
has an additional parameter in a check in page_pool_alloc_frag() which
causes MANA NIC to not be detected.

[Fix]


* Jammy: revert of the following patches:
  - 827c33e: "net: mana: Improve mana_set_channels() in low mem conditions" 
upstream
  - 5b59c72: "net: mana: Use page pool fragments for RX buffers instead of full 
pages to improve memory efficiency." from linux-next

[Test Plan]

* Compile tested
* Microsoft to test

[Regression potential]

* Changes are localized to MANA and are clean reverts, so low likelihood
of regression. Possible regressions could result in unexpected behavior
of MANA driver.

[Other info]

* SF#00422364
