Merge branch 'mlxsw-remove-xm-support'
Ido Schimmel says: ==================== mlxsw: Remove XM support The XM was supposed to be an external device connected to the Spectrum-{2,3} ASICs using dedicated Ethernet ports. Its purpose was to increase the number of routes that can be offloaded to hardware. This was achieved by having the ASIC act as a cache that refers cache misses to the XM where the FIB is stored and LPM lookup is performed. Testing was done over an emulator and dedicated setups in the lab, but the product was discontinued before shipping to customers. Therefore, in order to remove dead code and reduce complexity of the code base, revert the three patchsets that added XM support. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220613132116.2021055-1-idosch@nvidia.comSigned-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
