After testing, the performance of calling kick every time is not stable.
And if all the packets are sent and kicked again, the performance is not
good. So add a module parameter to specify how many packets are sent to
call a kick.

8 is a relatively stable value with the best performance.

Here is the pps of the test of xsk_kick_thr under different values (from
1 to 64).

I wonder what's the number for the case of non zc xsk?

Thanks

It can be found that when the value of xsk_kick_thr is relatively small,
the performance is not good, and when its value is greater than 13, the
performance will be more irregular and unstable. It looks similar from 3
to 13, I chose 8 as the default value.

The test environment is qemu + vhost-net. I modified vhost-net to drop
the packets sent by vm directly, so that the cpu of vm can run higher.
By default, the processes in the vm and the cpu of softirqd are too low,
and there is no obvious difference in the test data.

During the test, the cpu of softirq reached 100%. Each xsk_kick_thr was
run for 300s, the pps of every second was recorded, and the average of
the pps was finally taken. The vhost process cpu on the host has also
reached 100%.
