Are they saying that device drivers should be written in eBPF?

Or maybe their drivers should expose an eBPF API?

I assume some driver code still needs to reside in the actual kernel.

These tool wouldn't need kernel drivers, only to target the eBPF userspace API: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/userspace-api/ebpf/in...
