   Choose receive datapath implementation.
   **auto** allows the driver itself to make a choice based on firmware
   features available and required by the datapath implementation.
   **efx** chooses libefx-based datapath which supports Rx scatter.
+  **ef10** chooses EF10 (SFN7xxx, SFN8xxx) native datapath which is
+  more efficient than libefx-based and provides richer packet type
+  classification, but lacks Rx scatter support.
