[v7,0/5] drivers/net: add NXP ENETFEC driver

  This patch series introduce the enetfec driver, ENETFEC
(Fast Ethernet Controller) is a network poll mode driver for
the inbuilt NIC found in the NXP i.MX 8M Mini SoC.

An overview of the enetfec driver with probe and remove are in patch 1.
Patch 2 design UIO interface so that user space directly communicate with
a UIO based hardware device. UIO interface mmap the Control and Status
Registers (CSR) & BD memory in DPDK which is allocated in kernel and this
gives access to non-cacheble memory for BD.

Patch 3 adds the RX/TX queue configuration setup operations.
Patch 4 adds enqueue and dequeue support. Also adds some basic features
like promiscuous enable, basic stats.
Patch 5 adds checksum and VLAN features.

Hi Apeksha,

I did not finished reviewing this version, but to proceed can you
please first address comments to both previous version and this version?

Also there are some questions, it would be great if you can answer them.

Thanks,
