Hmm if I would be super picky then I'd like to have this variable as
"to_send", as we spoke. Could you change that?

With that, you can add my:

One more question, do you really have to do that per each bq_xmit_all
call? Couldn't you clear it in __dev_flush ?

Or IOW - what's the rationale behind storing xdp_prog in
xdp_dev_bulk_queue. Why can't you propagate the dst->xdp_prog and rely on
that without that local pointer?

You probably have an answer for that, so maybe include it in commit
message.

BTW same question for clearing dev_rx. To me this will be the same for all
bq_xmit_all() calls that will happen within same napi.
