Any type of AF_XDP socket in all modes implies creation of BPF map of

memory from the memlock limit and fail with EPERM if we're trying
to allocate more.

On my system with 64K bytes of max locked memory by default, OVS
frequently starts to fail after addition of 3rd afxdp port in SKB
mode:

   netdev_afxdp|ERR|xsk_socket__create failed (Operation not permitted)
                    mode: SKB qid: 0

Good catch!

I applied to master.

Thanks!
This also needs to be backported to 2.12.

Best regards, Ilya Maximets.
