Committed to branch-rh10-6.12.0-211.52.1.22.x.vz10-ovz, will be released in rh10-6.12.0-211.52.1.22.3.vz10

selftests: bpf: run test_xdp_features in its own netns
The device under test listens on the veth address of the namespace the
script runs in and the tester connects to it, so a firewall on the
machine refuses the control connection:
  Failed connecting to the Device Under Test control socket
That side of the pair is also always called v1, and cleanup is trapped
for signals only, not for a normal exit, so a failed run leaves the
device behind and every later run stops in setup with nothing printed
at all.
Run the test in a namespace of its own, the way nft_audit.sh and
nft_concat_range.sh already do: no rule of the machine applies, and
what the test leaves behind goes away with the namespace.
