This patch set improves the documentation and selftests for XDP Rx metadata handling. The first patch clarifies the documentation around XDP metadata layout and METADATA_SIZE. The second patch enhances the BPF selftests to make XDP metadata handling more robust across different NICs. Prior to this patch set, the XDP program might accidentally overwrite the device-reserved metadata. V3: - update doc and commit msg accordingly.
