Initial creation of an AF_XDP socket requires CAP_NET_RAW capability.
A privileged process might create the socket and pass it to a
non-privileged process for later use. However, that process will be
able to bind the socket to any network interface. Even though it will
not be able to receive any traffic without modification of the BPF map,
the situation is not ideal.
Sockets already have a mechanism that can be used to restrict what
interface they can be attached to. That is SO_BINDTODEVICE.
To change the binding the process will need CAP_NET_RAW.
Make xsk_bind() honor the SO_BINDTODEVICE in order to allow safer
workflow when non-privileged process is using AF_XDP.

Posting as an RFC for now to probably get some feedback.
Will re-post once the tree is open.

+SO_BINDTODEVICE setsockopt
+--------------------------
+
+This is a generic SOL_SOCKET option that can be used to tie AF_XDP
+socket to a particular network interface. It is useful when a socket
+is created by a privileged process and passed to a non-privileged one.
+Once the option is set, kernel will refuse attempts to bind that socket
+to a different interface. Updating the value requires CAP_NET_RAW.
