The scope of function .ndo_tx_timeout was changed to include the hang
queue when a TX timeout event occurs. See commit 0290bd291c
("netdev: pass the stuck queue to the timeout handler") for more
details. Now, drivers don't need to identify which queue is stopped.
Drivers can simply use the queue index provided by dev_watchdog and
execute all actions needed to restore network traffic. This commit do
some cleanups into Intel i40e driver to remove a redundant loop to find
stopped queue.

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.
