Title:
  mlxbf_gige: remove driver-managed interrupt counts

Status in linux-bluefield package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  SRU Justification:

  [Impact]

  The mlxbf_gige driver currently has three driver-managed
  interrupt counts that increment each time every interrupt
  handler executes. This has been reviewed and found to be
  unnecessary given core logic in Linux kernel manages the
  same information.

  [Fix]

  The fix is to remove the driver-managed interrupt counts
  from the driver itself, and let the core handle it.
  There is an upstream commit already that makes this change.

  [Test Case]

  The driver should function as before, specifically:
  * driver probes successfully
  * oob_net0 link comes up, as seen with "ifconfig -a"

  [Regression Potential]

  This change only affects counters that are visible inside
  driver, so thus should not introduce any regression.
