No, it is not sufficient.

Your driver have qede_alloc_fp_array() which for_each_queue (kz)alloc
memory.  If one of the memory allocations fail, then memory is
free'ed/"rolled-back" in qede_free_fp_array().  Thus, some of the
fp->rxq pointers will be allocated, but xdp_rxq_info_reg() have not
"registered" it yet.  Thus, this _is_ needed to correctly handle memory
failures.

The xdp_rxq_info_is_reg() API is needed in your driver, and I also found
a need for this in the Broadcom bnxt_en driver.

With the current implementation in xdp.c, I agree that this case will
never fail in your driver.  There is a clear expectation, that this API
will be extended (to support per RX-ring memory "return/free" API) and
that "will-never-fail" assumption will likely change...
