This series introduces XSK generic zerocopy xmit by adding XSK umem
pages as skb frags instead of copying data to linear space.
The only requirement for this for drivers is to be able to xmit skbs
with skb_headlen(skb) == 0, i.e. all data including hard headers
starts from frag 0.
To indicate whether a particular driver supports this, a new netdev
priv flag, IFF_TX_SKB_NO_LINEAR, is added (and declared in virtio_net
as it's already capable of doing it). So consider implementing this
in your drivers to greatly speed-up generic XSK xmit.

Applied, thanks!
