Björn Töpel eb91e4d4db Revert "xdp: add NULL pointer check in __xdp_return()"
This reverts commit 36e0f12bbf.

The reverted commit adds a WARN to check against NULL entries in the
mem_id_ht rhashtable. Any kernel path implementing the XDP (generic or
driver) fast path is required to make a paired
xdp_rxq_info_reg/xdp_rxq_info_unreg call for proper function. In
addition, a driver using a different allocation scheme than the
default MEM_TYPE_PAGE_SHARED is required to additionally call
xdp_rxq_info_reg_mem_model.

For MEM_TYPE_ZERO_COPY, an xdp_rxq_info_reg_mem_model call ensures
that the mem_id_ht rhashtable has a properly inserted allocator id. If
not, this would be a driver bug. A NULL pointer kernel OOPS is
preferred to the WARN.

README

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 Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
