Are you proposing a bunch of per-driver kfuncs that bpf prog will call.
If so that works, but bpf prog needs to pass dev and cqe pointers
into these kfuncs, so they need to be exposed to the prog somehow.
Probably through xdp_md ?
This way we can have both: bpf prog reading cqe fields directly
and using kfuncs to access things.
Inlining of kfuncs should be done generically.
It's not a driver job to convert native asm into bpf asm.
