Hi Greg,

We had multiple customers reporting that this change makes them unable to
use max ring size which is 8160 for this particular driver (which is not a
power of 2 obviously) so we are about to send a patch that will drop this
limitation.

To avoid the double work, can you please not proceed with this one?
The other two:
ice: xsk: prohibit usage of non-balanced queue id
ice: xsk: use Rx rings XDP ring when picking NAPI context

are valid and needed.

FWIW this was a part of -next patch set, so I suppose you picked this due
to some dependency?

Thanks,
Maciej
