I really dislike xdp_headlen(). This "headlen" originates from an SKB
implementation detail, that I don't think we should carry over into XDP
land.
We need to come up with something that isn't easily mis-read as the
header-length.

+ * xdp_headlen - Calculate the length of the data in an XDP buffer

How about xdp_datalen()?

Yes, I like xdp_datalen() :-)

I like naming of these.

Integrate these helpers into tap, tun, and XDP implementation to start.

No functional changes introduced.
