Hi Larysa,

I take it the last sentence refers to the placement of ice_map_xdp_rings()
in ice_prepare_xdp_rings() after rather than before the
(cfg_type == ICE_XDP_CFG_PART) condition.

If so, I see that it is a small change. But I do wonder if it is separate
from fixing the issue described in the first paragraph. And thus would
be better as a separate patch.

Also, (I'm raising a separate issue :) breaking out logic into
ice_xdp_ring_from_qid() seems very nice. But I wonder if this ought to be
part of a cleanup-patch for 'iwl' rather than a fixes patch for 'iwl-next'.

OTOH, I do see that breaking out ice_map_xdp_rings() makes sense in the
context of this fix as the same logic is to be called in two places.

Splitting patches aside, the resulting code looks good to me.
