I suppose that's needed for 3.0 and 3.2 as well (though the driver
changed quite a bit between those so I'm not sure about 3.0).

This one too.

You should perhaps apply these other fixes in front of it:
3afc962 macvtap: zerocopy: fix offset calculation when building skb
4ef67eb macvtap: zerocopy: fix truesize underestimation
02ce04b macvtap: zerocopy: put page when fail to get all requested user pages
01d6657 macvtap: zerocopy: set SKBTX_DEV_ZEROCOPY only when skb is built
successfully
We've had all 5 of these in Debian unstable for a month, and I'm going
to add them to the 3.2 queue shortly.

Also presumably good for 3.0 and 3.2.
