Maciej fixes various issues with VSI setup, cleanup, and rebuild paths.
Notably, keeping q_vector allocation synchronized with channel-count
changes to prevent threaded NAPI reconfiguration failures.

Chenguang Zhao fixes AF_XDP multi-buffer handling by correctly copying
and attaching fragments and cleaning up on allocation failure.

The following are changes since commit 46bc52d13594848023e681860df8700c8db14354:
   ipv4: fib: fix data-race and stale genid check around nh->nh_saddr

It looks like clashiko has found a few serious regressions, worth a respin.

I almost forgot: please note that the current expectation is for you to
address the clashiko comments on the ML.

Okay, there is a bunch of stuff that are reported at early stage of change
set which are later addressed - I thought bots are taking this into
consideration and therefore would skip it ?

Has the gemini LLM fell behind the others given that it reported no issues
whereas gpt/claude produced way too much of output ;)

From trying to fix one thing I'm about to be in a place where I have
refactored most of the rebuild path, which have been used without much of
a problem for (at least few) years.

It is what it is, but I have a mixed feelings for where we're at, not
mentioning where we're heading.
