  on XL710, performance number is far from the expectation on recent
firmware versions, if promiscuous mode is disabled, or promiscuous
mode is enabled and port MAC address is equal to the packet
destination MAC address. The fix for this issue may not be integrated
in the following firmware version. So the workaround in software
driver is needed. It needs to modify the initial values of 2 internal
only registers which is the same 2 of 3 registers of it did for X710.
Note that the workaround can be removed when it is fixed in firmware
in the future.

Wouldn't it be preferable to add a firmware version check to this code so that a
single driver can handle both cards with old and 'fixed' firmware?  That way
nothing needs to be removed and all i40e cards will have a consistent behavior

Yes, good idea!
The problem is that no firmware contains this fix till now, firmware guys even
cannot tell me which version will have this fix at this moment.
As it reads the registers first, and compares if it is what we wanted, and then
decides if a write is needed or not. With this, removing this piece of code is not
actually needed even a fix occur in the future, though the code will be redundant.

Thank you for the comments!

Very well, lets just make sure when it is fixed, the driver works with both
patched and unpatched firmware

  * On X710, performance number is far from the expectation on recent firmware
- * versions. The fix for this issue may not be integrated in the following
+ * versions; on XL710, performance number is also far from the expectation on
+ * recent firmware versions, if promiscuous mode is disabled, or promiscuous
+ * mode is enabled and port MAC address is equal to the packet destination MAC
+ * address. The fix for this issue may not be integrated in the following
  * firmware version. So the workaround in software driver is needed. It needs
- * to modify the initial values of 3 internal only registers. Note that the
- * workaround can be removed when it is fixed in firmware in the future.
