Unfortunately, this breaks every other driver using these macros, as the
point of them is that the unmap-address is not actually defined
and not taking up space in data structure. Referencing it by name
is a compile-time bug.

I've come up with a new patch to gve that just removes the
"struct gve_tx_dma_buf" and open-codes the access everywhere,
sending that as v2 now. Feel free to take that and modify as needed
before sending on, or doing yet another patch.
