XDP multi buffer implementation in the kernel assumes that all fragments have the same size. bpf_xdp_frags_increase_tail uses this assumption to get the size of the last fragment, and __xdp_build_skb_from_frame uses it to calculate truesize as nr_frags * xdpf->frame_sz. The current implementation of mlx5e uses fragments of different size in non-linear legacy RQ. Specifically, the last fragment can be larger than the others. It's an optimization for packets smaller than MTU. This commit adapts mlx5e to the kernel limitations and makes it use fragments of the same size, in order to add support for XDP multi buffer. The change is applied only if XDP is active, otherwise the old optimization still applies.

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.
