In the xsk consumer ring code there is a variable called RX_BATCH_SIZE that dictates the minimum number of entries that we try to grab from the fill and Tx rings. In fact, the code always try to grab the maximum amount of entries from these rings. The only thing this variable does is to throw an error if there is less than 16 (as it is defined) entries on the ring. There is no reason to do this and it will just lead to weird behavior from user space's point of view. So eliminate this variable. With this change, we will be able to simplify the xskq_nb_free and xskq_nb_avail code in the next commit.

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.
