This packs very poorly, and has a lot of padding holes.  Better ordering
would be:

struct nfp_net_tx_buf {
        struct sk_buff *skb;
        dma_addr_t dma_addr;
        u32 real_len;
        short int fidx;
        u16 pkt_cnt;
};

You really should audit the most core datastructures in this driver
for the same problem.
