Use netif_queue_set_napi() to link queues to NAPI instances so that they
can be queried with netlink.

$ ./tools/net/ynl/cli.py --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/netdev.yaml \
                         --dump queue-get --json='{"ifindex": 11}'
[{'id': 0, 'ifindex': 11, 'napi-id': 9, 'type': 'rx'},
 {'id': 1, 'ifindex': 11, 'napi-id': 10, 'type': 'rx'},
 {'id': 0, 'ifindex': 11, 'napi-id': 9, 'type': 'tx'},
 {'id': 1, 'ifindex': 11, 'napi-id': 10, 'type': 'tx'}]

Additionally use netif_napi_set_irq() to also provide NAPI interrupt
number to userspace.

$ ./tools/net/ynl/cli.py --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/netdev.yaml \
                         --do napi-get --json='{"id": 9}'
{'defer-hard-irqs': 0,
 'gro-flush-timeout': 0,
 'id': 9,
 'ifindex': 11,
 'irq': 42,
 'irq-suspend-timeout': 0}

Providing information about queues to userspace makes sense as APIs like
XSK provide queue specific access. Also XSK busy polling relies on
queues linked to NAPIs.

Sorry for diverting your thread with the questions around XDP.

Based on the conversation, this patch looks good to me.
