Subject: Re: [PATCH net-next v5 2/6] Define neigh_for_each
Note about subjects: all your patches should have an appropriate subject
prefix. It looks like it could just be "net: neighbour:" for every patch.
Also giving this patch a subject "define neigh_for_each" is odd, that
function already is defined. Below I argue that reusing the name
neigh_for_each for the new helper is inappropriate. If you accept that,
you can add the helper in a separate patch and convert the open-coded
sites right away, which would be in 2/6. Then 3/6 would be the patch
that moves neigh_for_each to mlxsw and renames. (Though below I also
argue that perhaps it would be better to keep it where it is now.)

This is still named as if it were a generic walker, but actually it's
hardcoding the mlxsw_sp_neigh_rif_made_sync_each callback. The name
should reflect that.
E.g. mlxsw_sp_neigh_rif_made_sync_neighs.
Then it would also be good to rename mlxsw_sp_neigh_rif_made_sync_each
to mlxsw_sp_neigh_rif_made_sync_neigh as well.

All this stuff looks like it's involved in private details of the
neighbor table implementation that IMHO a client of that module
shouldn't (have to) touch.
I'm not really sure why the function cannot stay where it is, under the
existing name, and the new function is not added under a different name.
Reusing neigh_for_each() seems inappropriate anyway, the name says "for
each neighbor", but in fact you are supposed to wrap it in this loop
over individual heads. Wouldn't it make sense to keep the existing
neigh_for_each(), and add a new helper, neigh_chain_for_each() or
something like that? And OK, call this new helper from neigh_for_each()?
Then this patch doesn't even need to exist.
