Unlike with TCP sockets, UDP sockets may receive packets from multiple
sources and hence the receiving context may be steered to be executed
on different cores through RSS or other Flow-Steering HW mechanisms
which could mean different napi contexts for the same socket, is that
a problem here? what's the severity?

Or.
