    mlxsw: Remove Mellanox SwitchX-2 ASIC support · b0d80c01
    Amit Cohen authored
    Initial support for the Mellanox SwitchX-2 ASIC was added in July 2015.
    Since then all development efforts shifted towards the Mellanox Spectrum
    ASICs and development of this driver stopped beside trivial fixes and
    refactoring. Therefore, the driver does not support any switch offloads
    and simply traps all traffic to the CPU, rendering it irrelevant for
    deployment.
    
    In addition, support for this ASIC was dropped by Mellanox a few years
    ago.
    
    Given the driver is not used by any users and that there is no
    intention of investing in its development, remove it from the kernel.
