[PATCH bpf-next V5 5/5] bpf: make it possible to identify BPF redirected SKBs

From: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hidden>

This change makes it possible to identify SKBs that have been redirected
by TC-BPF (cls_act). This is needed for a number of cases.

(1) For collaborating with driver ifb net_devices.
(2) For avoiding starting generic-XDP prog on TC ingress redirect.

It is most important to fix XDP case(2), because this can break userspace
when a driver gets support for native-XDP. Imagine userspace loads XDP
prog on eth0, which fallback to generic-XDP, and it process TC-redirected
packets. When kernel is updated with native-XDP support for eth0, then the
program no-longer see the TC-redirected packets. Therefore it is important
to keep the order intact; that XDP runs before TC-BPF.
