Use the 'options' field in xdp_desc as a packet continuity marker. Since 'options' field was unused till now and was expected to be set to 0, the 'eop' descriptor will have it set to 0, while the non-eop descriptors will have to set it to 1. This ensures legacy applications continue to work without needing any change for single-buffer packets. Add helper functions and extend xskq_prod_reserve_desc() to use the 'options' field.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
