Yes, you should help Maciej with the XDP bulking.

This logic baffles me. I absolutely hate when people repost patches
after I nack them without even as much as mentioning my objections in
the cover letter.

My concern was that we want the applications to encode fast path logic
in BPF and load that into the kernel. So your patch works fundamentally
against that goal:

I worry that with the volume of patches that get posted each day
objections of a measly contributor like myself will get forgotten 
if I don't reply to each posting, yet replying each time makes me look
bullish or whatnot (apart from being an utter waste of time).

Ugh.
