as it might be needed in streaming driver.
The 'standard' streaming driver (RCAR ravb_streaming) does not touch the
packet content and thus the DMA address is sufficient.
Other streaming drivers (e.g. the upcoming igb_streaming driver for intel
igb card) need to copy/modify packet content which makes it necessary
to also pass the virtual buffer address to the streaming driver.
