Similar to native xdp, do not always linearize the skb in
netif_receive_generic_xdp routine but create a non-linear xdp_buff to be
processed by the eBPF program. This allow to add  multi-buffer support
for xdp running in generic mode.

I like this is split out into a check function.

(For other reviewers)
This reinjected check is moved further down.

I though we could allow a SKB with skb_shinfo(skb)->nr_frags (that isn't
cloned or shared) to be processed by generic XDP without any reallocation?

So check would be: (skb_cloned(skb) || skb_shared(skb) ||)

[Headroom trick]
For layered devices the netstack could be the process that created the
SKB.  If you noticed my veth patchset[4/4], when I detect an XDP-prog
attach, I'm increasing the net_device headroom (.ndo_set_rx_headroom)
such that netstack will allocated enough headroom to satisfy
XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM.

Would is be possible to use napi_alloc_skb() here?

The napi_alloc_skb() is faster than netdev_alloc_skb(), but it as name
suggest assumes this is called under NAPI protection/context.  It
used-to-be the case for generic XDP, but code got moved around to
support layered devices, so I not 100% sure if this is always true (NAPI
context).

Again the slower variant.

Overall I like the patch :-)

Are we missing more things to allow GRO packets getting processed by generic XDP?
