patch 'net/ice: remove incorrect 16B descriptor read block' has been queued to stable release 21.11.7

[Kevin Traynor]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 21.11.7

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 03/13/24. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable/commit/d8f8df9c46885aa4ad365280fee51d6ff33dcc76

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] net/ice: remove incorrect 16B descriptor read block

[ upstream commit 9aee908eddeb6e8f3de402ac5661bca5161809a6 ]

By default, the driver works with 32B descriptors, but has a separate
descriptor read block for reading two descriptors at a time when using
16B descriptors. However, the 32B reads used are not guaranteed to be
atomic, which will cause issues if that is not the case on a system,
since the descriptors may be read in an undefined order.  Remove the
block, to avoid issues, and just use the regular descriptor reading path
for 16B descriptors, if that support is enabled at build time.

Fixes: ae60d3c9b227 ("net/ice: support Rx AVX2 vector")
