====================
Mellanox mlx5e XDP performance optimization

This series provides some preformancee optimizations for mlx5e
driver, especially for XDP TX flows.

1st patch is a simple change of rmb to dma_rmb in CQE fetch routine
which shows a huge gain for both RX and TX packet rates.

2nd patch removes write combining logic from the driver TX handler
and simplifies the TX logic while improving TX CPU utilization.

All other patches combined provide some refactoring to the driver TX
flows to allow some significant XDP TX improvements.

More details and performance numbers per patch can be found in each patch
commit message compared to the preceding patch.
