Here, we add another setsockopt for registered user memory (umem)
called XDP_UMEM_COMPLETION_QUEUE. Using this socket option, the
process can ask the kernel to allocate a queue (ring buffer) and also
mmap it (XDP_UMEM_PGOFF_COMPLETION_QUEUE) into the process.
The queue is used to explicitly pass ownership of umem frames from the
kernel to user process. This will be used by the TX path to tell user
space that a certain frame has been transmitted and user space can use
it for something else, if it wishes.

Here, the bind syscall is added. Binding an AF_XDP socket, means
associating the socket to an umem, a netdev and a queue index. This
can be done in two ways.
The first way, creating a "socket from scratch". Create the umem using
the XDP_UMEM_REG setsockopt and an associated fill queue with
XDP_UMEM_FILL_QUEUE. Create the Rx queue using the XDP_RX_QUEUE
setsockopt. Call bind passing ifindex and queue index ("channel" in
ethtool speak).
The second way to bind a socket, is simply skipping the
umem/netdev/queue index, and passing another already setup AF_XDP
socket. The new socket will then have the same umem/netdev/queue index
as the parent so it will share the same umem. You must also set the
flags field in the socket address to XDP_SHARED_UMEM.
v2: Use PTR_ERR instead of passing error variable explicitly.

filled in with Rx packet data by the kernel.
v2: Fixed potential crash in xsk_mmap.

In this commit the base structure of the AF_XDP address family is set
up. Further, we introduce the abilty register a window of user memory
to the kernel via the XDP_UMEM_REG setsockopt syscall. The memory
window is viewed by an AF_XDP socket as a set of equally large
frames. After a user memory registration all frames are "owned" by the
user application, and not the kernel.
v2: More robust checks on umem creation and unaccount on error.
Call set_page_dirty_lock on cleanup.
Simplified xdp_umem_reg.
