Subject: [PATCH intel-net 0/2] ice XDP fixes

Hi,

here are two small fixes around XDP support in ice driver.

Jamal reported that ice driver does not support XDP on his side. This
got me really puzzling and I had no clue what was going on. Turned that
this is the case when device is in 'safe mode', so let's add a dedicated
ndo_bpf for safe mode ops and make it clear to user what needs to be
fixed. I've described that in the commit message of patch 1 more thoroughly.

Second issue was found during implementing XDP Tx fallback path for
unsufficient queue count case, which I will send on next week once I'm
back from woods. Hopefully.

Thanks!

Maciej Fijalkowski (2):
  ice: add ndo_bpf callback for safe mode netdev ops
  ice: parametrize functions responsible for Tx ring management
