[PATCH net-next v2 2/2] net: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: use PP exclusively for XDP programs

PP allocations and XDP code path traversal are unnecessary
when no XDP program is loaded.
Prevent that by simply not creating the pool.
This change boosts driver performance for this use case,
allowing the CPU to handle about 13% more packets/sec.
