This patch removes the SSE Rx and Tx paths from the i40e, iavf and ice driverss. Each of these drivers have faster vector paths (AVX2 and AVX-512) which have feature parity with the SSE paths. In environments where AVX2 or AVX-512 are not supported, the scalar path will still be used, which also has feature parity.
This series is intended for the next-net-intel tree.
