Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/8] be2net: small structures clean-up

The series:
- removes unused / unneccessary fields in several be2net structures
- re-order fields in some structures to eliminate holes, cache-lines
  crosses
- as result reduces size of main struct be_adapter by 4kB

Ivan Vecera (8):
  be2net: remove unused old AIC info
  be2net: remove unused old custom busy-poll fields
  be2net: remove desc field from be_eq_obj
  be2net: reorder fields in be_eq_obj structure
  be2net: move txcp field in be_tx_obj to eliminate holes in the struct
  be2net: remove unused tx_jiffies field from be_tx_stats
  be2net: re-order fields in be_error_recovert to avoid hole
  be2net: move rss_flags field in rss_info to ensure proper alignment
