should we do "orig_data - xdp.data" instead?
The 'off' might be < 0, when pushing new header.

When doing encapsulation by calling xdp_adjust_head(skb, offset), the
offset is < 0 in order to make extra room in the front ; so xdp.data <
orig_data, off < 0.

But if we are decapsulating protocol, then off > 0, and maybe we
should call __skb_pull()?
