I wonder where does this number come from?  This is quite a lot and
means that using XDP_PASS will slow down any sockets on top of it.
Which in turn means people will try to remove XDP when not in use,
causing resets.  E.g. build_skb (which I have a patch to switch to) uses
a much more reasonable NET_SKB_PAD.
