Hm, I think this may be a bit misleading, XDP 'core' bits that are
needed for XDP base operation are spread into many more places than
just the ones listed below like net/core/dev.c, net/core/rtnetlink.c,
net/core/filter.c to name a few, then obviously drivers themselves,
and also there's net/xdp/ etc. Depending on what you mean, it might
make it probably more clear to split this into specific sub-topics
like below XDP SOCKETS, e.g. XDP CPUMAP, XDP PAGE POOL or such for
expert review, or if this should be some sort of catch-all (?)
underneath general networking entry, then this should more accurately
reflect core code so reviewers are properly Cc'ed on all the pieces
if someone runs get_maintainer.pl to get a Cc list ... maybe also
makes sense to add other XDP contributors as well.
