Subject: Re: [PATCH bpf-next v6 11/18] ice: put XDP meta sources assignment

i thought boolean key would be enough but inc/dec should serve properly
for example prog hotswap cases.

My only concern is that we might be hurting in a minor way hints path now,
no?

wouldn't it be better to pull it out and avoid calling
ice_prepare_pkt_ctx_zc() unnecessarily?
