The patch adds a new extra type to be able to diffirentiate

For Linux the offset value is going to be passed via xenstore.
Why? I can only see disadvantages by using a different communication
mechanism.
I see it like other features passed through xenstore and it requires
less changes to
other structures with the same final result.
This is okay as long there is no Xenstore interaction required when the
interface has been setup completely (i.e. only defining the needed
offset for XDP is fine, enabling/disabling XDP at runtime should not be
done via Xenstore IMO).
And please, no guest type special casing. Please replace "Linux" by e.g.
"The guest" (with additional tweaking of the following sentence).
