[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 0/3] net/mlx5: cleanup link status

[Nelio Laranjeiro <nelio.laranjeiro@6wind.com>]

This series applies on top of [1] and cleans up the DPDK API implementation
for the link status.

[1] https://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/35653/

Changes in v2:
- Removes kernel version verification, the bug it tried to detected was fixed
  several commit after in the PMD.  Implementation in mlx5 kernel driver is
  only available since v4.9.
- Removes the alarm handler as this can be worked around by not acknowledging
  the event until the link becomes stable.
- Clean-up the API implementation by letting the application handle the
  interrupt and decide by itself to start/stop the device.

Nelio Laranjeiro (3):
  net/mlx5: remove kernel version check
  net/mlx5: fix link status behavior
  net/mlx5: fix link status to use wait to complete
