Couldn't xenvif_fill_frags calculate the 3rd argument itself given that
it has skb in hand.
We still have to pass pending_idx, as it is no longer in skb->data. I have plans (I've already prototyped it, actually) to move that pending_idx from skb->data to skb->cb, if that happens, this won't be necessary. On the other hand, it makes more sense just to just pass pending_idx, and in fill_frags we can decide based on destructor_arg whether do we need it or not.
Actually, I've just moved the skb->cb patch to the beginning of this series, so we can completely omit that new parameter from fill_frags.
