Use the new batched xsk interfaces for the Tx path in the i40e driver to improve performance. On my machine, this yields a throughput increase of 4% for the l2fwd sample app in xdpsock. If we instead just look at the Tx part, this patch set increases throughput with above 20% for Tx. Note that I had to explicitly loop unroll the inner loop to get to this performance level, by using a pragma. It is honored by both clang and gcc and should be ignored by versions that do not support it. Using the -funroll-loops compiler command line switch on the source file resulted in a loop unrolling on a higher level that lead to a performance decrease instead of an increase.
