Okay, I should have said "was to be", I guess?
If EGRESS _was_to_be_ only for XDP frames we could try to hide the
handling in the core (with slight changes to XDP_TX handling in the
drivers), making drivers smaller and XDP feature velocity higher.
I understand you'd like a hook for all packets, that is clear.
I'm just trying to highlight the cost and consequences.
