nit: maybe __always_inline

ack, I will add in v4

For the drivers with xdp_set_data_meta_invalid(), we're basically setting xdp->data_meta
twice unless compiler is smart enough to optimize the first one away (did you double check?).
Given this is supposed to be a cleanup, why not integrate this logic as well so the
xdp_set_data_meta_invalid() doesn't get extra treatment?

we discussed it before, but I am fine to add it in v4. Something like:

static __always_inline void
xdp_prepare_buff(struct xdp_buff *xdp, unsigned char *hard_start,
		 int headroom, int data_len, bool meta_valid)
{
	unsigned char *data = hard_start + headroom;
	
	xdp->data_hard_start = hard_start;
	xdp->data = data;
	xdp->data_end = data + data_len;
	xdp->data_meta = meta_valid ? data : data + 1;
}
