My issue here is that all these skb helpers call each other so I end
up having to move a lot of the unrelated skb helpers to this new
header (maybe that is acceptable but it feels weird).

What I could do here is move all the page_pool_page|iov_* helpers to a
minimal header, and include only that one from skbuff.h, rather than
including all of net/page_pool/helpers.h
