Don't mindlessly apply any suggestion of any robot/script without at
least compile-testing:

/data/users/andriin/linux/samples/bpf/xdpsock_user.c: In function
‘swap_mac_addresses’:
/data/users/andriin/linux/samples/bpf/xdpsock_user.c:630:2: warning:
implicit declaration of function ‘swap’; did you mean ‘mmap’?
[-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
swap(*src_addr, *dst_addr);
^~~~
mmap

I think this exact change was accidentally applied recently and backed
out. Please stop sending such "improvements".
