This patch is used to construct skb based on page to save memory copy
overhead.
This function is implemented based on IFF_TX_SKB_NO_LINEAR. Only the
network card priv_flags supports IFF_TX_SKB_NO_LINEAR will use page to
directly construct skb. If this feature is not supported, it is still
necessary to copy data to construct skb.

The test environment is Aliyun ECS server.
Test cmd:
xdpsock -i eth0 -t -S -s <msg size>

Looks like we could walk off the end of pgs[] if len is larger than
the number of pgs? Do we need to guard against a misconfigured socket
causing a panic here? AFAIU len here is read from the user space
descriptor so is under user control. Or maybe I missed a check somewhere.
Thanks,

Don't worry about this, the legality of desc has been checked.
xskq_cons_peek_desc -> xskq_cons_read_desc ->
xskq_cons_is_valid_desc -> xp_validate_desc
Ah OK I didn't dig past the cons_read_desc(). In that case LGTM.
