2020-06-26docs: networking: reorganize driver documentation againJakub Kicinski
Organize driver documentation by device type. Most documents have fairly verbose yet uninformative names, so let users first select a well defined device type, and then search for a particular driver. While at it rename the section from Vendor drivers to Hardware drivers. This seems more accurate, besides people sometimes refer to out-of-tree drivers as vendor drivers.

2019-12-10nfp: add support for TLV device statsJakub Kicinski
Device stats are currently hard coded in the PCI BAR0 layout. Add a ability to read them from the TLV area instead. Names for the stats are maintained by the driver, and their meaning documented. This allows us to more easily add and remove device stats. Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <jakub.kicinski@netronome.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
