Hi, Jason

Could you skip this patch?
I'm fine with either merging or dropping this.

Let we review other patches firstly?
I will be on vacation soon, and won't have time to do this until next week.
Have a happly vacation.
But I spot two possible "issues":

1) the DMA metadata were stored in the headroom of the page, this
breaks frags coalescing, we need to benchmark it's impact
Not every page, just the first page of the COMP pages.

So I think there is no impact.

2) pre mapped DMA addresses were not reused in the case of XDP_TX/XDP_REDIRECT
Because that the tx is not the premapped mode.

Thanks.
I see Michael has merge this series so I'm fine to let it go first.

Thanks
