Subject: [PATCH V1 0/7] port probe time optimization

This patch series introduced a feature that the time to probe a VF/SF will
be reduced greatly in large scale, eg hundreds of VF/SFs. This feature is
controlled through the "probe_opt_en" device argument. Setting it to a
non-zero value indicates the application will enable this functionality
when probing a device. This feature relies on a feature of RDMA driver to
be release in incoming upstream kernel 6.12 or the equivalent in
OFED 24.10, ie. RDMA monitor. For further information on the devargs
limitation, see "doc/guides/nics/mlx5.rst".

Minggang Li(Gavin) (5):
  mailmap: update user name
  common/mlx5: fix Netlink socket leak
  common/mlx5: add RDMA monitor event awareness
  mlx5: use RDMA Netlink to update port information
  mlx5: add backward compatibility for RDMA monitor

Rongwei Liu (2):
  net/mlx5: optimize device probing
  net/mlx5: add new devargs to control probe optimization
