Why are we no longer accounting the size of the skb_shared_info if the
program doesn't support frags?

The patch description says we're enabling TSO, but this change enables a
couple of other flags as well. Also, it's not quite obvious to me why
your change makes this possible? Is it because we can now execute XDP on
a full TSO packet at once? Because then this should be coupled to the
xdp_has_frags flag of the XDP program? Or will the TSO packet be
segmented before it hits the XDP program? But then this change has
nothing to do with the rest of your series?

Please also add this explanation to the commit message :)
