looking at the code.. how do we ensure that code running through
bpf_prog_run_xdp will not get dispatcher image changed while
it's being exetuted

we use 'the other half' of the image when we add/remove programs,
but could bpf_dispatcher_update race with bpf_prog_run_xdp like:


cpu 0:                                  cpu 1:

bpf_prog_run_xdp
   ...
   bpf_dispatcher_xdp_func
      start exec image at offset 0x0

                                        bpf_dispatcher_update
                                                update image at offset 0x800
                                        bpf_dispatcher_update
                                                update image at offset 0x0

      still in image at offset 0x0


that might explain why I wasn't able to trigger that on
bare metal just in qemu
