    nfp: use full 40 bits of the NSP buffer address · 1489bbd1
    Dirk van der Merwe authored
    The NSP default buffer is a piece of NFP memory where additional
    command data can be placed.  Its format has been copied from
    host buffer, but the PCIe selection bits do not make sense in
    this case.  If those get masked out from a NFP address - writes
    to random place in the chip memory may be issued and crash the
    device.
    
    Even in the general NSP buffer case, it doesn't make sense to have the
    PCIe selection bits there anymore. These are unused at the moment, and
    when it becomes necessary, the PCIe selection bits should rather be
    moved to another register to utilise more bits for the buffer address.
    
    This has never been an issue because the buffer used to be
    allocated in memory with less-than-38-bit-long address but that
    is about to change.
