  To: xen-devel; +Cc: jgross, paul

The patch adds a new extra type to be able to diffirentiate
between RX responses on xen-netfront side with the adjusted offset
required for XDP processing.

For Linux the offset value is going to be passed via xenstore.

Signed-off-by: Denis Kirjanov <denis.kirjanov@suse.com>

v2:
- added documentation
- fixed padding for netif_extra_info
