Fix a compatibility problem when the old XDP_SHARED_UMEM mode is used
together with the xsk_socket__create() call. In the old XDP_SHARED_UMEM
mode, only sharing of the same device and queue id was allowed, and
in this mode, the fill ring and completion ring were shared between
the AF_XDP sockets.
Therefore, it was perfectly fine to call the xsk_socket__create() API
for each socket and not use the new xsk_socket__create_shared() API.
This behavior was ruined by the commit introducing XDP_SHARED_UMEM
support between different devices and/or queue ids. This patch restores
the ability to use xsk_socket__create in these circumstances so that
backward compatibility is not broken.

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.
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.
