Indeed, I haven't started looking into the AF_XDP (and XDP in general) on
stmmac, lots of fixes lately on the subject so I'll get there eventually :)

I'm currently plumbing the driver selftest on my setup (ethtool -t) and just
runnign this uncovers lots of issues al lover the place, once this
passes I'll get on the kselftests and see what we can do on this.
