In the small buffer case during driver unload we currently use put_page instead of dev_kfree_skb. Resolve this by adding a check for virtnet mode when checking XDP queue type. Also name the function so that the code reads correctly to match the additional check.

Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> I think we definitely want this one in -net as it's a bugfix.This whole series is a bug fix, we must have adjust_header XDP support in the virtio_net driver before v4.10 goes out, it is a requires base feature for XDP.
I have to say device resets outside probe have a huge potential to uncover hypervisor bugs. I am rather uncomfortable doing that after -rc1. How about a module option to disable it by default? We can then ship a partial implementation in 4.10 and work on completing it in 4.11. -- MST
