[Impact]

* Request from Google to include new Intel IDPF driver support

[Fix]

* Mantic - 24 clean cherry-picks, 1 backport from upstream
* Jammy - 11 clean cherry-picks, 7 backports from upstream

[Test Case]

* Compile tested
* Boot tested
* Tested internally and by Google using neper (https://github.com/google/neper)
* Networking is functional and throughput is as expected

[Where things could go wrong]

* Low chance of regression, changes have been upstream since 6.6 kernel
* Bulk of changes in IDPF driver
* Other changes to network drivers largely adding #include directives

[Other Info]

* SF #00368902
