Subject: [PATCH iwl-next v5 0/5] i40e: Simplify VSI and VEB handling

The series simplifies handling of VSIs and VEBs by introducing for-each
iterating macros, 'find' helper functions. Also removes the VEB
recursion because the VEBs cannot have sub-VEBs according datasheet and
fixes the support for floating VEBs.

The series content:
Patch 1 - Uses existing helper function for find FDIR VSI instead of loop
Patch 2 - Adds and uses macros to iterate VSI and VEB arrays
Patch 3 - Adds 2 helper functions to find VSIs and VEBs by their SEID
Patch 4 - Fixes broken support for floating VEBs
Patch 5 - Removes VEB recursion and simplifies VEB handling

Changelog:
v1->v2 - small correction in patch 4 description
       - changed helper names in patch 3
v2->v3 - correct patch files (v2 was broken)
v3->v4 - added kdoc stuff
       - fixed wrong check in i40e_ndo_bridge_getlink()
v4->v5 - fixed VSI/VEB interation macros

Ivan Vecera (5):
  i40e: Use existing helper to find flow director VSI
  i40e: Introduce and use macros for iterating VSIs and VEBs
  i40e: Add helpers to find VSI and VEB by SEID and use them
  i40e: Fix broken support for floating VEBs
  i40e: Remove VEB recursion
