Subject: [v5, net-next 0/8] bng_en: enhancements for RX and TX datapath 

Hi,

This series enhances the bng_en driver by adding:
1. Tx support (standard + TSO)
2. Rx support (standard + LRO/TPA)

Changes from:
v4->v5
 Addressed comments from Paolo Abeni
 - Fixed mixed whitespace and tab usage
 - Reverse Christmas Tree style
 - Replaced bitfields with bool
 - Dropped redundant DMA sync to device
 - Implemented ndo_features_check() to move length
   and num_frag validation out of the Tx path
 - Dropped redundant queue mapping check in Tx path

 Addressed comments from Paolo Abeni and Andrew Lunn
 - Positioned macros before their associated structs
 - Migrated to BIT() and GENMASK() macros
 - Optimized DMA sync scope to packet length instead of full buffer

 Addressed comments from ALOK TIWARI
 - Fixed a typo in a comment.
 - Updated macro to require all arguments to be passed explicitly

v3->v4
 - Scoped the series to RX and TX datapath per Jakub Kicinski's comments.
 - Dropped IS_ERR() per Alok Tiwari's comments.

v2->v3
 Addressed comments from Andrew Lunn
   - Apply Rev-xmas fix in several places.
   - Correct ethtool-speed comment to reflect accurate behavior.

 Addressed comments from ALOK TIWARI
   - Remove duplicate definition of RX_CMP_L2_ERRORS.
   - Fix macro by adding the required arguments.
   - Add newline for clarity/formatting.

 Addressed kernel test robot warning
   - Fix compilation error: removed unused variable gro

 Moved hw specific structs to appropriate header file

v1->v2
 Removed unused function bnge_alloc_rx_page()
 Removed inline keywords from couple of functions
 Removed some stats related code that doesn't applicable (missed_irqs)
 Addressed kernel test robot warning
    - Fixed compilation issue with CONFIG_INET is not set

Bhargava Marreddy (8):
  bng_en: Extend bnge_set_ring_params() for rx-copybreak
  bng_en: Add RX support
  bng_en: Handle an HWRM completion request
  bng_en: Add TX support
  bng_en: Add ndo_features_check support
  bng_en: Add support to handle AGG events
  bng_en: Add TPA related functions
  bng_en: Add support for TPA events
