Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Replace driver's usage of hard-coded device IDs to
 #defines

Noa Osherovich introduced a series of new Mellanox device ID definitions to
help differentiate specific controllers that needed INTx masking quirks [1].

Bjorn Helgaas followed on, using the device ID definitions Noa provided to
replace hard-coded values within the mxl4 ID table [2].

This patch continues along similar lines, adding a few additional Mellanox
device ID definitions and converting the net/mlx5e driver's mlx5 ID table to
use the defines so tools like 'grep' and 'cscope' can be used to help
identify relationships with other aspects (such as INTx masking).
