Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/8][pull request] i40e: support XDP multi-buffer

Tirthendu Sarkar says:

This patchset adds multi-buffer support for XDP. Tx side already has
support for multi-buffer. This patchset focuses on Rx side. The last
patch contains actual multi-buffer changes while the previous ones are
preparatory patches.

On receiving the first buffer of a packet, xdp_buff is built and its
subsequent buffers are added to it as frags. While 'next_to_clean' keeps
pointing to the first descriptor, the newly introduced 'next_to_process'
keeps track of every descriptor for the packet. 

On receiving EOP buffer the XDP program is called and appropriate action
is taken (building skb for XDP_PASS, reusing page for XDP_DROP, adjusting
page offsets for XDP_{REDIRECT,TX}).

The patchset also streamlines page offset adjustments for buffer reuse
to make it easier to post process the rx_buffers after running XDP prog.

With this patchset there does not seem to be any performance degradation
for XDP_PASS and some improvement (~1% for XDP_TX, ~5% for XDP_DROP) when
measured using xdp_rxq_info program from samples/bpf/ for 64B packets.
