[PATCH iwl-next v5 01/13] xdp, libeth: make the xdp_init_buff() micro-optimization generic

[Alexander Lobakin <aleksander.lobakin@intel.com>]

Often times the compilers are not able to expand two consecutive 32-bit
writes into one 64-bit on the corresponding architectures. This applies
to xdp_init_buff() called for every received frame (or at least once
per each 64 frames when the frag size is fixed).
Move the not-so-pretty hack from libeth_xdp straight to xdp_init_buff(),
but using a proper union around ::frame_sz and ::flags.
The optimization is limited to LE architectures due to the structure
layout.

One simple example from idpf with the XDP series applied (Clang 22-git,
CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE => -O2):

add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-27 (-27)
Function                                     old     new   delta
idpf_vport_splitq_napi_poll                 5076    5049     -27

The perf difference with XDP_DROP is around +0.8-1% which I see as more
than satisfying.
