[PATCH v3] net/bnx2x: offer maintainership for bnx2x

[Julien Aube]

This is an offer to maintain the code for bnx2x-based
cards. It may not be possible on the long run due to
the old design of this chipset.

Note that I'm not affiliated with LSI nor Broadcom and
do not have access to documentation or other NDA-based
code.

   The legacy actions should be removed
   once ``MODIFY_FIELD`` alternative is implemented in drivers.
 
-* net/bnx2x: Starting from DPDK 23.07, the Marvell QLogic bnx2x driver will be removed.
-  This decision has been made to alleviate the burden of maintaining a discontinued product.
-
 * net/liquidio: Remove LiquidIO ethdev driver.
   The LiquidIO product line has been substituted
   with CN9K/CN10K OCTEON product line smart NICs located in ``drivers/net/octeon_ep/``.
