You said in this thread that you've done several tests - what were they?
Now that you're following logic from other drivers, have you tested 3k MTU
against XDP? Because your commit msg still refer to 2k as your target. If
3k is fine then i would reflect that in the subject of the patch.

Why do you share a link to v1 here?

You're also missing Fixes: tag, as you're targetting the net tree.
