/*
 * Older implementation of Xen network frontend / backend has an
 * implicit dependency on the MAX_SKB_FRAGS as the maximum number of
 * ring slots a skb can use. Netfront / netback may not work as
 * expected when frontend and backend have different MAX_SKB_FRAGS.
 *
 * A better approach is to add mechanism for netfront / netback to
 * negotiate this value. However we cannot fix all possible
 * frontends, so we need to define a value which states the minimum
 * slots backend must support.
 *
 * The minimum value derives from older Linux kernel's MAX_SKB_FRAGS
 * (18), which is proved to work with most frontends. Any new backend
 * which doesn't negotiate with frontend should expect frontend to
 * send a valid packet using slots up to this value.

/*
 * Notifications after enqueuing any type of message should be conditional on

 * If the client sends notification for rx requests then it should specify
 * feature 'feature-rx-notify' via xenbus. Otherwise the backend will assume
 * that it cannot safely queue packets (as it may not be kicked to send them).
