page_pool: add a comment explaining the fragment counter usage
When reading the page_pool code the first impression is that keeping
two separate counters, one being the page refcnt and the other being
fragment pp_frag_count, is counter-intuitive.
However without that fragment counter we don't know when to reliably
destroy or sync the outstanding DMA mappings. So let's add a comment
explaining this part.
