I see, I wanted to use _stride_ as grantee for how much a page frag can
grow, for example in mlx5 we need the whole stride to build_skb  around
the frag, since we always need the trailer, but it is different in here
and we can avoid resource waste.

so how a bout this: (As suggested by Martin).
currently as mlx4_en_complete_rx_desc assumes that priv->rx_headroom
is always 0 in non-XDP setup, hence:

frags->page_offset += sz_align;

where it really should be:
frags->page_offset += sz_align + priv->rx_headroom;

we can use it as a hint to not reuse as below:
what do you think ?

I guess that would work, please double check priv->rx_headroom wont need another cache line,
thanks !
