Using xdp_return_buff() here is actually not optimal for performance.
I can see that others socionext/netsec.c and AF_XDP also use this
xdp_return_buff().
I do think code wise it looks a lot nice to use xdp_return_buff(), so
maybe we should optimize xdp_return_buff(), instead of using
page_pool_recycle_direct() here? (That would also help AF_XDP ?)
The problem with xdp_return_buff() is that it does a "full" lookup from
the mem.id (xdp_buff->xdp_rxq_info->mem.id) to find the "allocator"
pointer in this case the page_pool pointer. Here in the driver we
already have access to the stable allocator page_pool pointer via
struct mvneta_rx_queue *rxq->page_pool.

Creating the struct xdp_buff (on call-stack) this way is not optimal
for performance (IHMO it looks nicer code-wise, but too bad).
This kind of initialization of only some of the members, cause GCC to
zero out other members (I observed this on Intel, which use an
expensive rep-sto operation). Thus, this cause extra unnecessary memory
writes.
A further optimization, is that you can avoid re-assigning:
rxq = &rxq->xdp_rxq
for each frame, as this actually stays the same for all the frames in
this NAPI cycle. By instead allocating the xdp_buff on the callers
stack, and parsing in xdp_buff as a pointer.
