So my first through was, why is the core not doing this? The core NAPI
poll code can initialise the list. netif_receive_skb() withing the
driver poll would see there is a list and append to it. And when the
poll finished the NAPI core would pass the list up the stack? Maybe
this already exists and this driver is just using the wrong API?
