====================
sfc: remove nic_data usage in common code
efx->nic_data should only be used from NIC-specific code (i.e. nic_type
functions and things they call), in files like ef10[_sriov].c and
siena.c. This series refactors several nic_data usages from common
code (mainly in mcdi_filters.c) into nic_type functions, in preparation
for the upcoming ef100 driver which will use those functions but have
its own struct layout for efx->nic_data distinct from ef10's.
After this series, one nic_data usage (in ptp.c) remains; it wasn't
clear to me how to fix it, and ef100 devices don't yet have PTP support
(so the initial ef100 driver will not call that code).
