Test for dma_need_sync earlier to increase performance. xsk_buff_dma_sync_for_cpu() takes an xdp_buff as parameter and from that the xsk_buff_pool reference is dug out. Perf shows that this dereference causes a lot of cache misses. But as the buffer pool is now sent down to the driver at zero-copy initialization time, we might as well use this pointer directly, instead of going via the xsk_buff and we can do so already in xsk_buff_dma_sync_for_cpu() instead of in xp_dma_sync_for_cpu. This gets rid of these cache misses. Throughput increases with 3% for the xdpsock l2fwd sample application on my machine.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
