I think it would be nice to include a bit more of the stack trace here.

It is a shame that we now have more asymmetry regarding
the allocation of the pool and unwind on error prueth_prepare_rx_chan().
But if I see things correctly the freeing of the pool via
xdp_rxq_info_unreg() is unconditional. And with that in mind
I agree the approach taken by this patch makes sense.
