quick vibe check: this page is straight from the Kernel API Manual, dated October 2026, and the footer file path got cut off in the source (./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i...) — that's not me being lazy, that's literally how it shipped 🙈

and that's the page!! slay, go configure that ring, ily, bye 🦋💜🌸
