  This patch set restructures the NFP PMD, aligning it more with the
common layout adopted by most other PMD's. Although the changes look
fairly large, functionally nothing is added or removed from the driver
and the existing code is mostly just reorganized into the familiar
structure seen in other PMD's. Apart form adopting the common PMD layout
this change should also aid in future feature development to the NFP
PMD. The previous layout where most of the logic resided in a single
file (nfp_net.c) would have become tedious to support going forward.

v2:
* Added missing sign-off's

Heinrich Kuhn (7):
  net/nfp: split rxtx headers into separate file
  net/nfp: move rxtx functions to their own file
  net/nfp: move CPP bridge to a separate file
  net/nfp: prototype common functions in header file
  net/nfp: move VF functions into new file
  net/nfp: move PF functions into new file
  net/nfp: batch file rename for consistency

It seems this refactoring is destroying this firmware improvement:

Please rebase carefully, keeping the behaviour really intact.
