I think someone was talking about being able to attach multiple XDP
programs in the future?

another approach I want to suggest is for each test to test for
EBUSY/EEXIST error code on attach and simply sleep/retry,  Then in the
future when it doesn't return this error there is nothing to change on
test side.
