Yes, i think passing explicit integer value to 'virtio_transport_inc/dec_rx_pkt'
is more clear solution. I had this variant, but thought that current will be
smaller. Current version with skb argument forces to call 'skb_pull()' before
each 'virtio_transport_dec_rx_pkt()' as 'rx_bytes'/'fwd_cnt' new value relies
on skb parameters - otherwise 'rx_bytes' become invalid. 'skb_pull()' will be
used only to update 'skb->len' which shows rest of the data. I'll do it in v3.
