[PATCH net v4 0/2] net/mlx5e: Prevent stale XSK buffer release on refill retries

Prevent duplicate XSK buffer release when a deferred RX refill fails and
the same WQE is retried.

Patch 1 fixes legacy cyclic RQ. It is unchanged from v3 and retains
Dragos' Reviewed-by tag.

Patch 2 fixes the analogous striding-RQ MPWQE path. Following Dragos'
review, it now fills skip_release_bitmap in the common error path of
mlx5e_xsk_alloc_rx_mpwqe(), consistently with mlx5e_alloc_rx_mpwqe().

Targeted fault injection covered both an early allocation failure and a
partial 8-of-16-buffer unwind. With three consecutive failures for one
MPWQE, the original 16 XSK buffers were released only once, retries saw a
full bitmap, and a later successful allocation cleared it. A clean
20-second AF_XDP zero-copy pressure run exercised 1,575,262 buffer
allocation failures without invalid descriptors, WQE errors, or kernel
warnings.

Changes in v4:
- Keep patch 1 unchanged.
- Move the MPWQE bitmap update from the release loop to the common XSK
  allocator error path, as suggested by Dragos.
- Validate both early and partial allocation failures and run an
  additional zero-copy pressure test.
