Is there a use case for needing this to be configurable?

Why is this necessary?  Shouldn't providing a custom .ndo_select_queue() be
sufficient to ensure that skb_get_queue_mapping() returns the same thing?

And if this goes away, it's just a matter of a function pointer, so if it does
need to be configurable it could be a runtime option.

I'll add more details in the commit log. This is a customer generated
feature. Bypassing the standard XPS can increase performance by making use
of the DPAA HW particularities.

If the standard XPS is desired, the Kconfig option allows the driver user to
select that.

dpa_get_queue_mapping() is used in more than one place, the ndo function cannot
be used directly in all places, the current setup is justified.

It's used on the hot path, adding an extra indirection layer to make it selectable
at runtime would defeat the purpose...

Under what circumstances does it make sense to desire this?  Could you put the
answer to that in the help text?

It's called in two places that I see.  For the call in dpa_tx(), when will
skb_get_queue_mapping() not return the correct answer?  For the call in
dpa_select_queue(), that's already called via function pointer so it would not
be a new indirection layer.

"if this goes away"

I wasn't asking for a new indirection layer.
