Drivers usually have a number of restrictions for running XDP
- most common being buffer sizes, LRO and number of rings.
Even though some drivers try to be helpful and print error
messages experience shows that users don't often consult
kernel logs on netlink errors.  Try to use the new extended
ack mechanism to carry the message back to user space.
