A few adjustments in nft_pipapo_init() are needed to allow usage of
this set back-end for a single, ranged field.
Provide a convenient NFT_PIPAPO_MIN_FIELDS definition that currently
makes sure that the rbtree back-end is selected instead, for sets
with a single field.
This finally allows a fair comparison with rbtree sets, by defining
NFT_PIPAPO_MIN_FIELDS as 0 and skipping rbtree back-end initialisation:

If the AVX2 set is available, we can exploit the repetitive
characteristic of this algorithm to provide a fast, vectorised
version by using 256-bit wide AVX2 operations for bucket loads and
bitwise intersections.
In most cases, this implementation consistently outperforms rbtree
set instances despite the fact they are configured to use a given,
single, ranged data type out of the ones used for performance
measurements by the nft_concat_range.sh kselftest.
That script, injecting packets directly on the ingoing device path
with pktgen, reports, averaged over five runs on a single AMD Epyc
7402 thread (3.35GHz, 768 KiB L1D$, 12 MiB L2$), the figures below.
CONFIG_RETPOLINE was not set here.
Note that this is not a fair comparison over hash and rbtree set
types: non-ranged entries (used to have a reference for hash types)
would be matched faster than this, and matching on a single field
only (which is the case for rbtree) is also significantly faster.
However, it's not possible at the moment to choose this set type
for non-ranged entries, and the current implementation also needs
a few minor adjustments in order to match on less than two fields.

A similar strategy could be easily reused to implement specialised
versions for other SIMD sets, and I plan to post at least a NEON
version at a later time.
