Forgot to mention, skb mode of xdp_redirect_map gives us 2.5Mpps, so we 
get about 20% improvements.

That would be very useful if we can reuse driver specific recycling 
method. (We probably still need some synchronization since tun_ptr_free 
is called in different contexts).

Yes, but I believe we don't have better solution here since we can do 
per-cpu queues without notifying guest (userspace).

Yes and I'm considering to use your bulk method in cpu map on top in the 
future. The main bottleneck now is not ndo_xdp_xmit() (8Mpps) but vhost 
(3Mpps), with some improvements, vhost an have about 7Mpps but still 
slower than ndo_xdp_xmit().
