Notice that skb_mark_for_recycle() is introduced later than fixes tag in
6a5bcd84e886 ("page_pool: Allow drivers to hint on SKB recycling").
It is believed that fixes tag were missing a call to page_pool_release_page()
between v5.9 to v5.14, after which is should have used skb_mark_for_recycle().
Since v6.6 the call page_pool_release_page() were removed (in 535b9c61bdef
("net: page_pool: hide page_pool_release_page()") and remaining callers
converted (in commit 6bfef2ec0172 ("Merge branch
'net-page_pool-remove-page_pool_release_page'")).
This leak became visible in v6.8 via commit dba1b8a7ab68 ("mm/page_pool: catch
page_pool memory leaks").
Fixes: 6c5aa6fc4def ("xen networking: add basic XDP support for xen-netfront")
