I think we need some more context here in commit message.
ixgbe HW was really short on HW queues that's why probably this restriction
was introduced in the first place.
Now I believe that driver has an ability to share XDP Tx resources with locking
being involved and that's why you can relax the previous limitation.
Correct?
