In general, this series lgtm.

This dependency is a bit problematic, as this series is already merged
in next-net-intel.
There will be some merge conflict to resolve.
Instead, it would have been better if next-net-intel relied on this new series.
After this series, the only remaining special case is for SVE stuff in
net/hns3 and we would have all source compiling handled by
drivers/meson.build.
Do you plan to clean it too?
