Reaching "inside" xdp_rxq to reset it doesn't feel right in this
context, even if it's going to work fine (for now).

I think that the suggestion that Alexander gave in that other thread is
the best approach. And thanks for noticing that igb '_set_ringparam()'
has the same underlying problem and also needs to be fixed.
