virtio_net: Fix problems around XDP tx and napi_tx
While I'm looking into how to account standard tx counters on XDP tx
processing, I found several bugs around XDP tx and napi_tx.
Patch1: Fix oops on error path. Patch2 depends on this.
Patch2: Fix memory corruption on freeing xdp_frames with napi_tx enabled.
Patch3: Minor fix patch5 depends on.
Patch4: Fix memory corruption on processing xdp_frames when XDP is disabled.
Also patch5 depends on this.
Patch5: Fix memory corruption on processing xdp_frames while XDP is being
disabled.
Patch6: Minor fix patch7 depends on.
Patch7: Fix memory corruption on freeing sk_buff or xdp_frames when a normal
queue is reused for XDP and vise versa.
v2:
- patch5: Make rcu_assign_pointer/synchronize_net conditional instead of
_virtnet_set_queues.
- patch7: Use napi_consume_skb() instead of dev_consume_skb_any()

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.
