I will be loud thinking over here, but this could be set in
ice_fill_rx_descs(), while grabbing xdp_buffs from xsk_pool, should
minimize the performance overhead.

But then again you address that with static branch in later patch.

OTOH, I was thinking that we could come with xsk_buff_pool API that would
let drivers assign this at setup time. Similar what is being done with dma
mappings.

Magnus, do you think it is worth the hassle? Thoughts?

Or should we advise any other driver that support hints to mimic static
branch solution?
