Thank you Magnus

My original suggestion is wrong , it should be following

if (xdp->rxq->mem.type == MEM_TYPE_XSK_BUFF_POOL)
       i40e_rx_buffer_flip(rx_ring, rx_buffer, size);


but I feel it is not enough to only check mem.type, it must ensure that map_type is BPF_MAP_TYPE_XSKMAP ? but it is not expose. 

other maptype, like BPF_MAP_TYPE_DEVMAP,  and if mem.type is MEM_TYPE_PAGE_SHARED, not flip the rx buffer, will cause data corruption.
