This doesn't look correct.
The page_pool DMA mapping cannot be "kept" when page traveling into the network stack attached to an SKB. (Ilias and I have a long term plan[1] to allow this, but you cannot do it ATM).
You will have to call: page_pool_release_page(rx_q->page_pool, buf->page);
This will do a DMA-unmap, and you will likely loose your performance gain :-(

Also remember that the page_pool requires you driver to do the DMA-sync operation. I see a dma_sync_single_for_cpu(), but I didn't see a dma_sync_single_for_device() (well, I noticed one getting removed). (For some HW Ilias tells me that the dma_sync_single_for_device can be elided, so maybe this can still be correct for you).
