If the size of the queue is 8 * 1024, then the size of the desc[] is
8 * 1024 * 8 = 16 * PAGE, but we also add struct xdp_ring size, so it is
16page+. This is necessary to apply for a 4-order memory. If there are a
lot of queues, it is difficult.
Here, that we actually waste 15 pages. 4-Order memory is 32 pages, but we only
use 17 pages.

I agree.
Thanks.
