Right, as CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL selects PAGE_POOL if NET.

I think I wrote this when it wasn't true (before Lorenzo introduced
generic page_pools) and then just forgot to change that ._.

We can. But I think I'd need to introduce a return-NULL wrapper in case
of !PAGE_POOL to satisfy the linker, as lots of drivers build their XSk
code unconditionally.
