It's better not to make holes in the struct. And looks like it's better
to move it closer to free_list_cnt to put it on the same cache line with
tx_descs which is accessed earlier in xskq_cons_read_desc_batch()
(though the last point is not strict because both cache lines should be
hot at the moment)
