So I missed something indeed :P you're correct

Hmm, looks like we can do it.
For scenario where there was no bq->xdp_prog and failure of ndo_xdp_xmit,
we didn't alter the count of frames to be sent, so we would basically free
all of the frames (as drops is 0, cnt = bq->count). After that we
recalculate drops and correct value will be reported in tracepoint.
(needed to explain it to myself)

Yes, we should init to_send to cnt as you're suggesting above.

Good to hear! I agree on your points as well.
