Not really when XDP is set - it's when buffers are used.

virtio-net: pack headroom into ctx for mergeable buffers

Pack headroom into ctx - this way when we get a buffer we can figure out
the actual headroom that was allocated for the buffer. Will be helpful
to optimize switching between XDP and non-XDP modes which have different
headroom requirements.
