Yes, skb and xdpf are mutually exclusive.
Also Alexander Lobakin mention something similar and I was not sure.
Now that I have tried it I can see it that is more clear that skb and
xdpf are mutually exclusive and also reduce the size of the struct.
So I will update this in the next series.

Thanks for suggestion. I definetly see your point.
I would prefer for now to keep this like it is. Because I think in the
near future I should do a proper investigation to see where the
performance of the FDMA can be improved. And this will
definetly be on the TODO.
