Beyond the AI review comments posted by Stephen, which does seem to flag
some issues that could do with being addressed, this set (mainly patch 2)
also needs a rebase to apply cleanly on top of latest next-net-intel tree.
It's missing support for the new Tx path selection logic.

Also, it would be good to have a release note entry for the new AVX2 code
paths added in either patch 1 or patch 2.

Thanks,
