User don't need to enable manually this, drivers usually enable most
of their features on netdevice creation. This way we just could have
an option to turn it off.

If the feature is not about to be exposed to user at all, only to
indicate if a particular driver supports skbs with skb_headlen == 0
on its .ndo_start_xmit() path, then it might be better to introduce
a private flag (netdev_priv_flags) instead of netdev_feature. Private
flags are kernel-only and can't be toggled on/off after netdev is
registered.
E.g.

IFF_TX_SKB_NO_LINEAR

and test it like

if (dev->priv_flags & IFF_TX_SKB_NO_LINEAR) {
/* new generic zerocopy path */
} else {
/* current code */
}
