I know that previous comment is "fields to support TX offloads",
but I'd prefer "for TX offloading of tunnels".
Maybe that "encapsulation" is better than "tunnel".
Just my opinion.

I would like to highlight that you are using 2 bytes in the second cache line
of the mbuf.
It deserves at least a line in the commit log.
Actually I'd prefer a separate patch for mbuf modifications.
