NSP commands may be slow to respond, we should try to avoid doing a command-per-item when user requested to change multiple parameters for instance with an ethtool .set_settings() command. Introduce a way of internal NSP code to carry state in NSP structure and add start/finish calls to perform the initialization and kick off of the configuration request, with potentially many parameters being modified in between. nfp_eth_set_mod_enable() will make use of the new code internally, other "set" functions to follow.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
