In the __xsk_rcv() multi-buffer path, xsk_buff_alloc() is called in a
loop without checking its return value. xsk_buff_can_alloc() only
counts fill queue entries without validating their addresses, so it
can succeed while xsk_buff_alloc() rejects all remaining entries and
returns NULL.
Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address
0xdffffc0000000000

Fix this with a two-stage transaction. First allocate and stage all
buffers required for the packet, recycling all staged buffers with
xsk_buff_free() if any allocation fails. Only after this stage
succeeds, copy the data, reserve the RX descriptors, and release the
buffers in an error-free loop.

v2:
- Allocate all packet buffers before reserving RX descriptors.
- Recycle partially allocated buffers instead of only cancelling the
RX producer reservations.
