What I said at the time is

	I am fine adding xsk in a new file or just adding in same file working on a split later.

Given this was a year ago and all we keep seing is "prepare" patches,
I am inclined to say do it in the reverse order: add
af-xdp first then do the split when it's clear there is not
a lot of code sharing going on.
