If this is connected, then why have you not redefined DEV_MAP_BULK_SIZE?

Cc. DPAA2 maintainers as they use this define in their drivers.
You want to make sure this driver is flexible enough for future changes.

Like:

I cannot make up my mind: It would be a micro-optimization to move
this if-statement to include/net/xdp.h, but it will make code harder to
read/follow, and the call you replace xdp_return_frame() is also in
xdp.c with same call to _xdp_return().  Let keep it as-is. (we can
followup with micro-optimizations)
