I'm not sure this is correct. We seem to hardcode headroom to
PRUETH_HEADROOM lower in this function. If XDP adds or removes
network headers and then returns XDP_PASS we'll look for the packet 
at the wrong offset.

We just merged some XDP tests, could you try running 
tools/testing/selftests/drivers/net/xdp.py ? 
Some general instructions can be found here:
https://github.com/linux-netdev/nipa/wiki/Running-driver-tests

Not sure how stable the test is for all NICs but I think the 
 xdp.test_xdp_native_adjst_head_grow_data
test case will exercise what I'm suspecting will fail.
