From: Maxim Mikityanskiy <maximmi@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 1a50cf9a67ff2241c2949d30bc11c8dd4280eef8 ] rq->xdp_prog is RCU-protected and should be accessed only with rcu_access_pointer for the NULL check in mlx5e_poll_rx_cq. rq->xdp_prog may change on the fly only from one non-NULL value to another non-NULL value, so the checks in mlx5e_xdp_handle and mlx5e_poll_rx_cq will have the same result during one NAPI cycle, meaning that no additional synchronization is needed.
