Greetings

Welcome to v5. No functional changes; removed an unused variable from
patch 2.

This is an attempt to followup on something Jakub asked me about [1],
adding an xsk attribute to queues and more clearly documenting which
queues are linked to NAPIs...

After the RFC [2], Jakub suggested creating an empty nest for queues
which have a pool, so I've adjusted this version to work that way.

The nest can be extended in the future to express attributes about XSK
as needed. Queues which are not used for AF_XDP do not have the xsk
attribute present.

I've run the included test on:
  - my mlx5 machine (via NETIF=)
  - without setting NETIF

And the test seems to pass in both cases.

Thanks,
Joe

v5:
  - Removed unused ret variable from patch 2 as Simon suggested.

v4: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250207030916.32751-1-jdamato@fastly.com/
  - Add patch 1, as suggested by Jakub, which adds an empty nest helper.
  - Use the helper in patch 2, which makes the code cleaner and prevents
    a possible bug.

v3: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20250204191108.161046-1-jdamato@fastly.com/
  - Change comment format in patch 2 to avoid kdoc warnings. No other
    changes.

v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250203185828.19334-1-jdamato@fastly.com/
  - Switched from RFC to actual submission now that net-next is open
  - Adjusted patch 1 to include an empty nest as suggested by Jakub
  - Adjusted patch 2 to update the test based on changes to patch 1, and
    to incorporate some Python feedback from Jakub :)
