I suppose the alternative is to only fire the tracepoint when *not* in XDP.
Then the changes to the XDP stuff can be dropped and a separate set of
tracepoints for XDP can be created in the future.

That might reduce the complexity a bit, and will probably still be pretty
useful for people tuning their non-XDP workloads.
