I prefer one of these names for the property as they clearly describe
a feature that the driver supports.

This one I misunderstood first. I thought: "this is not zerocopy", but
you are right it is. It is zero-copy implemented with skb:s. But in my
mind, the NO_LINEAR version that you suggested are clearer.
