Paolo Abeni 55f968726e net/mlx5e: use indirect calls wrapper for the rx packet handler
We can avoid another indirect call per packet wrapping the rx
handler call with the proper helper.

To ensure that even the last listed direct call experience
measurable gain, despite the additional conditionals we must
traverse before reaching it, I tested reversing the order of the
listed options, with performance differences below noise level.

Together with the previous indirect call patch, this gives
~6% performance improvement in raw UDP tput.

v2 -> v3:
 - use only the direct calls always available regardless of
   the mlx5 build options
 - drop the direct call list macro, to keep the code as simple
   as possible for future rework

v1 -> v2:
 - update the direct call list and use a macro to define it,
   as per Saeed suggestion. An intermediated additional
   macro is needed to allow arg list expansion

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
