====================
eth: mpnic: initial support for Meta Platforms NIC

Meta Platforms NIC is the second-generation NIC from Meta. There are
quite a few high-level similarities to fbnic, but all of the CSRs and
descriptors have been reshuffled, and new features have been added.
Since the device is sufficiently different from fbnic, and the design of
our FW is minimal, we have decided a separate driver is appropriate.

Major new features compared to fbnic will take a while to land. This
series includes only the bare-bones Tx/Rx datapath.

Our high-level patch sequence and plan for the upcoming series is:
 1. Core datapath (this series)
 2. Basic offloads, RSS, and counters
 3. Firmware mailbox support
 4. Base ethtool operations

This patch series was prepared in part with these LLM prompts:
https://github.com/kuba-moo/ai-prompts/blob/main/driver-upstreaming-prompts.md

The prompts were used to distill our fully-featured OOT driver into this
minimal Tx/Rx capable upstream driver. We then performed human review on
the output to create this posting. Jakub has made the prompts public in
case people would like to take a look.
