This patch fixes a number of consistency issues in the queue allocation
path related to XDP.
As it stands, the number of allocated XDP queues changes in three
different scenarios.
1) Adding an XDP program while the interface is up via
gve_add_xdp_queues
2) Removing an XDP program while the interface is up via
gve_remove_xdp_queues
3) After queues have been allocated and the old queue memory has been
removed in gve_queues_start.
However, the requirement for the interface to be up for
gve_(add|remove)_xdp_queues to be called, in conjunction with the fact
that the number of queues stored in priv isn't updated until _after_ XDP
queues have been allocated in the normal queue allocation path means
that if an XDP program is added while the interface is down, XDP queues
won't be added until the _second_ if_up, not the first.
Given the expectation that the number of XDP queues is equal to the
number of RX queues, scenario (3) has another problematic implication.
When changing the number of queues while an XDP program is loaded, the
number of XDP queues must be updated as well, as there is logic in the
driver (gve_xdp_tx_queue_id()) which relies on every RX queue having a
corresponding XDP TX queue. However, the number of XDP queues stored in
priv would not be updated until _after_ a close/open leading to a
mismatch in the number of XDP queues reported vs the number of XDP
queues which actually exist after the queue count update completes.
This patch remedies these issues by doing the following:
1) The allocation config getter function is set up to retrieve the
_expected_ number of XDP queues to allocate instead of relying
on the value stored in `priv` which is only updated once the queues
have been allocated.
2) When adjusting queues, XDP queues are adjusted to match the number of
RX queues when XDP is enabled. This only works in the case when
queues are live, so part (1) of the fix must still be available in
the case that queues are adjusted when there is an XDP program and
the interface is down.

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 reStructuredText 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.
