Subject: [PATCH net-next 00/14] cleanups and RX path rewrite

Hi!

This series lays groundwork for upcoming XDP support by updating
the RX path not to pre-allocate sk_buffs.  I start with few
cleanups, removal of NFP3200-related code being the most significant.
Patch 7 moves to alloc_frag() and build_skb() APIs.  Again, a number
of small cleanups follow.  The set ends with adding support for
different number of RX and TX rings.

Jakub Kicinski (14):
  nfp: simplify nfp_net_poll()
  nfp: remove support for nfp3200
  nfp: remove unnecessary call to ether_setup()
  nfp: remove inline attributes and dead code
  nfp: centralize the buffer size calculation
  nfp: add buffer drop/recycle helper for RX
  nfp: use alloc_frag() and build_skb()
  nfp: add separate buffer allocation function for napi
  nfp: use AND instead of modulo to get ring indexes
  nfp: create separate define for max number of vectors
  nfp: use unsigned int for vector/ring counts
  nfp: remove nfp_net_irqs_wanted()
  nfp: replace num_irqs with max_r_vecs
  nfp: bring back support for different ring counts
