Introduce multi-buffer bit (mb) in xdp_frame/xdp_buffer to specify
if shared_info area has been properly initialized for non-linear
xdp buffers.
Initialize mb to 0 for all xdp drivers

It is nice to see that we have some many XDP drivers, but 20 separate
patches for drivers is a bit much.  Perhaps we can do all the drivers
in one patch? What do others think?

I see that mvneta is missing, but maybe it is doing another kind of
init of struct xdp_buff?
