[PATCH net-next v2] virtio_net: Introduce skb_vnet_common_hdr to avoid typecasting
...o net headers, such as virtio_net_hdr_mrg_rxbuf,
virtio_net_hdr_v1_hash, etc. Due to these variations, the code relies
on multiple type casts to convert memory between different structures,
potentially leading to bugs when there are changes in these structures.
Introduces the "struct skb_vnet_common_hdr" as a unifying header
structure using a union. With this approach, various virtio net header
structures can be converted by accessing different members of this
structure, thus eliminating the need for type casting and reducing the
risk of potential bugs.
For example following code:
static str...
