No, you're right. I was just worried that we would forget to change this
when we add another flag later on, so I thought I'd mask it from the
get-go. Can't the compiler figure out that the second mask is unnecessary?

Clearer how? As in, you prefer just always returning XDP_PASS on error?

Yeah, good idea! :)
