when there is no meta you bail out early in xsk_buff_get_metadata() as
tx_metadata_len was not set, no?

IMHO adding this might confuse future users which approach should be
preferred.

Thinking out loud...couldn't we export address correction logic and pass
the corrected addr to xsk_buff_get_metadata and then add it to
pool->addrs. But that would require modifying existing callsites +
addressing xp_raw_get_dma() as well :<

Standard question - any perf improvement when micro benchmarking? :P
