The function has only a statement of calling memset() to clear xdp_rxq object. Let it always be an inline function.
No, this is the wrong approach. The function is already "static", and the compiler have likely already inlined this code, but we leave it up to the compiler to choose. Besides this is slowpath code, why are you even trying to optimize this?
