The current MQPRIO offload implementation uses the legacy TSN Tx mode. In this mode the hardware uses four packet buffers and considers queue priorities. In order to harmonize the TAPRIO implementation with MQPRIO, switch to the regular TSN Tx mode. This mode also uses four packet buffers and considers queue priorities. In addition to the legacy mode, transmission is always coupled to Qbv. The driver already has mechanisms to use a dummy schedule of 1 second with all gates open for ETF. Simply use this for MQPRIO too. This reduces code and makes it easier to add support for frame preemption later. Tested on i225 with real time application using high priority queue, iperf3 using low priority queue and network TAP device.

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 reStructuredText 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.
