OR, I think we may tight the feature with the new approach to build
skbs by page as it makes no sense for anything else.
So, if we define something like:
NETIF_F_XSK_TX_GENERIC_ZC{,_BIT}, "xsk-tx-generic-zerocopy",
then user can toggle your new XSK Tx path on/off via Ethtool for
drivers that will support it (don't forget to add it to hw_features
for virtio_net then).
