xsk: allow remap of fill and/or completion rings
The remap of fill and completion rings was frowned upon as they control the usage of UMEM which does not support concurrent use. At the same time this would disallow the remap of these rings into another process. A possible use case is that the user wants to transfer the socket/ UMEM ownership to another process (via SYS_pidfd_getfd) and so would need to also remap these rings. This will have no impact on current usages and just relaxes the remap limitation.
