Alex added page bias of LONG_MAX, which is admittedly quite a clever way of catching overflows of the pp ref count. The page pool code was "optimized" to leave the ref at 1 for freed pages so it can't catch basic bugs by itself any more. (Something we should probably address under DEBUG_NET...) Unfortunately for fbnic since commitf7dc3248dc("skbuff: Optimization of SKB coalescing for page pool") core _may_ actually take two extra pp refcounts, if one of them is returned before driver gives up the bias the ret < 0 check in page_pool_unref_netmem() will trigger. While at it add a FBNIC_ to the name of the driver constant.

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.
