I believe this is the common use case.  When attaching an XDP/bpf prog,
then the driver usually want to change the RX-ring memory model
(different performance trade off).  When detaching XDP, then driver
want to change back to old memory model. During this process, I
believe, the NAPI-ID remains the same (right?).
