This patch change the API for ndo_xdp_xmit to support bulking xdp_frames. When kernel is compiled with CONFIG_RETPOLINE, XDP sees a huge slowdown. Most of the slowdown is caused by DMA API indirect function calls, but also the net_device->ndo_xdp_xmit() call. Benchmarked patch with CONFIG_RETPOLINE, using xdp_redirect_map with single flow/core test (CPU E5-1650 v4 @ 3.60GHz), showed performance improved: for driver ixgbe: 6,042,682 pps -> 6,853,768 pps = +811,086 pps for driver i40e : 6,187,169 pps -> 6,724,519 pps = +537,350 pps With frames avail as a bulk inside the driver ndo_xdp_xmit call, further optimizations are possible, like bulk DMA-mapping for TX. Testing without CONFIG_RETPOLINE show the same performance for physical NIC drivers. The virtual NIC driver tun sees a huge performance boost, as it can avoid doing per frame producer locking, but instead amortize the locking cost over the bulk. V2: Fix compile errors reported by kbuild test robot <lkp@intel.com> V4: Isolated ndo, driver changes and callers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
