Why do you need at least 30 irq vecs?

This register naming is unfortunate. What stands 8125B for, and what V4?
Does V4 stand for a global version of the Realtek RSS IP block?
Then the 8125B would be redundant.

The driver has camel case for historic reasons. Camel case shouldn't
be used for new constants. Checkpatch would have warned. There are
several other places in the series where checkpatch would complain.
Therefore, use checkpatch and fix all warnings/errors.

There are registers with at least V2, V4, V6.
And like in a previous comment: Which benefit has the
8125 here (at least if the versioning is global)?

BIT() macro can be used. And any specific reasons (except historic ones)
why you define an enum that is never used instead of defines?
