Here we add the functionality required to support zero-copy Tx, and
also exposes various zero-copy related functions for the netdevs.

Currently, AF_XDP only supports a fixed frame-size memory scheme where
each frame is referenced via an index (idx). A user passes the frame
index to the kernel, and the kernel acts upon the data. Some NICs,
however, do not have a fixed frame-size model, instead they have a
model where a memory window is passed to the hardware and multiple
frames are filled into that window (referred to as the "type-writer"
model).
By changing the descriptor format from the current frame index
addressing scheme, AF_XDP can in the future be extended to support
these kinds of NICs.
In the index-based model, an idx refers to a frame of size
frame_size. Addressing a frame in the UMEM is done by offseting the
UMEM starting address by a global offset, idx * frame_size + offset.
Communicating via the fill- and completion-rings are done by means of
idx.
In this commit, the idx is removed in favor of an address (addr),
which is a relative address ranging over the UMEM. To convert an
idx-based address to the new addr is simply: addr = idx * frame_size +
offset.
We also stop referring to the UMEM "frame" as a frame. Instead it is
simply called a chunk.
To transfer ownership of a chunk to the kernel, the addr of the chunk
is passed in the fill-ring. Note, that the kernel will mask addr to
make it chunk aligned, so there is no need for userspace to do
that. E.g., for a chunk size of 2k, passing an addr of 2048, 2050 or
3000 to the fill-ring will refer to the same chunk.
On the completion-ring, the addr will match that of the Tx descriptor,
passed to the kernel.
Changing the descriptor format to use chunks/addr will allow for
future changes to move to a type-writer based model, where multiple
frames can reside in one chunk. In this model passing one single chunk
into the fill-ring, would potentially result in multiple Rx
descriptors.
This commit changes the uapi of AF_XDP sockets, and updates the
documentation.

Previously the fill queue descriptor was not copied to kernel space
prior validating it, making it possible for userland to change the

In this commit we remove the explicit ring structure from the the
uapi. It is tricky for an uapi to depend on a certain L1 cache line
size, since it can differ for variants of the same architecture. Now,
we let the user application determine the offsets of the producer,
consumer and descriptors by asking the socket via getsockopt.
A typical flow would be (Rx ring):
struct xdp_mmap_offsets off;
struct xdp_desc *ring;
u32 *prod, *cons;
void *map;
...
getsockopt(fd, SOL_XDP, XDP_MMAP_OFFSETS, &off, &optlen);
map = mmap(NULL, off.rx.desc +
NUM_DESCS * sizeof(struct xdp_desc),
PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED | MAP_POPULATE, sfd,
XDP_PGOFF_RX_RING);
prod = map + off.rx.producer;
cons = map + off.rx.consumer;
ring = map + off.rx.desc;

Here the actual receive functions of AF_XDP are implemented, that in a
later commit, will be called from the XDP layers.
There's one set of functions for the XDP_DRV side and another for
XDP_SKB (generic).
A new XDP API, xdp_return_buff, is also introduced.
Adding xdp_return_buff, which is analogous to xdp_return_frame, but
acts upon an struct xdp_buff. The API will be used by AF_XDP in future
commits.
Support for the poll syscall is also implemented.
v2: xskq_validate_id did not update cons_tail.
The entries variable was calculated twice in xskq_nb_avail.
Squashed xdp_return_buff commit.

Here, the bind syscall is added. Binding an AF_XDP socket, means
associating the socket to an umem, a netdev and a queue index. This
can be done in two ways.
The first way, creating a "socket from scratch". Create the umem using
the XDP_UMEM_REG setsockopt and an associated fill queue with
XDP_UMEM_FILL_QUEUE. Create the Rx queue using the XDP_RX_QUEUE
setsockopt. Call bind passing ifindex and queue index ("channel" in
ethtool speak).
The second way to bind a socket, is simply skipping the
umem/netdev/queue index, and passing another already setup AF_XDP
socket. The new socket will then have the same umem/netdev/queue index
as the parent so it will share the same umem. You must also set the
flags field in the socket address to XDP_SHARED_UMEM.
v2: Use PTR_ERR instead of passing error variable explicitly.

Another setsockopt (XDP_RX_QUEUE) is added to let the process allocate
a queue, where the kernel can pass completed Rx frames from the kernel
to user process.
The mmapping of the queue is done using the XDP_PGOFF_RX_QUEUE offset.

Here, we add another setsockopt for registered user memory (umem)
called XDP_UMEM_FILL_QUEUE. Using this socket option, the process can
ask the kernel to allocate a queue (ring buffer) and also mmap it
(XDP_UMEM_PGOFF_FILL_QUEUE) into the process.
The queue is used to explicitly pass ownership of umem frames from the
user process to the kernel. These frames will in a later patch be
filled in with Rx packet data by the kernel.
v2: Fixed potential crash in xsk_mmap.
