That's what I was trying to say previously.

This will introduce branch, so for intel drivers we're getting the
overhead of one add and a branch. I'm still opting for a separate helper.

static __always_inline void
xdp_prepare_buff(struct xdp_buff *xdp, unsigned char *hard_start,
		 int headroom, int data_len)
{
	unsigned char *data = hard_start + headroom;

	xdp->data_hard_start = hard_start;
	xdp->data = data;
	xdp->data_end = data + data_len;
	xdp_set_data_meta_invalid(xdp);
}

static __always_inline void
xdp_prepare_buff_meta(struct xdp_buff *xdp, unsigned char *hard_start,
		      int headroom, int data_len)
{
	unsigned char *data = hard_start + headroom;

	xdp->data_hard_start = hard_start;
	xdp->data = data;
	xdp->data_end = data + data_len;
	xdp->data_meta = data;
}
