This is addressing the same open TODO as the patch under review
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20260105114732.140719-1-mahdifrmx@gmail.com/
It does so in the single basic block, as suggested here
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/willemdebruijn.kernel.21c4d3b7b8f9d@gmail.com/
But these updates are expensive, so better to batch them as in the
other patch.
