Note that there's indeed a mode when we have exclusive XDP TX queue:

        /* XDP requires extra queues for XDP_TX */
        if (curr_qp + xdp_qp > vi->max_queue_pairs) {
                netdev_warn_once(dev, "XDP request %i queues but max
is %i. XDP_TX and XDP_REDIRECT will operate in a slower locked tx
mode.\n",
                                 curr_qp + xdp_qp, vi->max_queue_pairs);
                xdp_qp = 0;
        }

So we need to mention how the code works in this patch.

Thanks
