Fix a possible hang in xdpsock that can occur when using multiple
threads. In this case, one or more of the threads might get stuck in
the while-loop in tx_only after the user has signaled the main thread
to stop execution. In this case, no more Tx packets will be sent, so a
thread might get stuck in the aforementioned while-loop. Fix this by
introducing a test inside the while-loop to check if the benchmark has
been terminated. If so, return from the function.

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.
