net: Add priv_flags for allow tx skb without linear
In some cases, we hope to construct skb directly based on the existing memory without copying data. In this case, the page will be placed directly in the skb, and the linear space of skb is empty. But unfortunately, many the network card does not support this operation. For example Mellanox Technologies MT27710 Family [ConnectX-4 Lx] will get the following error message: mlx5_core 0000:3b:00.1 eth1: Error cqe on cqn 0x817, ci 0x8, qn 0x1dbb, opcode 0xd, syndrome 0x1, vendor syndrome 0x68 00000000: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00000010: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00000020: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00000030: 00 00 00 00 60 10 68 01 0a 00 1d bb 00 0f 9f d2 WQE DUMP: WQ size 1024 WQ cur size 0, WQE index 0xf, len: 64 00000000: 00 00 0f 0a 00 1d bb 03 00 00 00 08 00 00 00 00 00000010: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00000020: 00 00 00 2b 00 08 00 00 00 00 00 05 9e e3 08 00 00000030: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 mlx5_core 0000:3b:00.1 eth1: ERR CQE on SQ: 0x1dbb So a priv_flag is added here to indicate whether the network card supports this feature.
