Sorry for the delay. I have tested this variant and it works. Just one
thing below.

Here, NAPI may still be scheduled. So if you clear interrupts, enetc_poll()
on another CPU might still have time to re-enable them. This makes the
call pointless.

Please move the enetc_clear_interrupts() call after the for() loop below
(AKA leave it where it is).

FWIW, there are at least 2 other valid ways of solving this problem. One
has already been mentioned (reset the counter in enetc_free_rx_ring()):

@@ -2014,6 +2015,8 @@ static void enetc_free_rx_ring(struct enetc_bdr *rx_ring)

+	rx_ring->xdp.xdp_tx_in_flight = 0;
 }

 static void enetc_free_rxtx_rings(struct enetc_ndev_priv *priv)

And the other would be to keep rescheduling NAPI until there are no more
pending XDP_TX frames.

But I like your second proposal the best. It doesn't involve adding an
unnecessary extra test in the fast path.
