Wouldn't nr_frags = 0 in the !xdp_buff_is_mb case? Is the
xdp_buff_is_mb check with goto really required?

Not that I care much, but couldn't you just init num_frags = 0 and
avoid the goto?

Anyways its not my driver so no need to change it if you like it better
the way it is. Mostly just checking my understanding.
