Now that the copy-firmware.sh script can create symlinks from the Link:
entries in the WHENCE file on the fly, remove the duplicate symlinks
from the filesystem.
One odd entry was intel/dsp_fw_cnl.bin which was listed both as symlink
and as a regular file. Both entries can be removed since the it's really
a symlink, so it will be recreated at installation time.
While at it, update the check_whence.py script to not look for the
existence of symlinks in the filesystem because they are created on the
fly at installation time by the copy_firmware.sh script.

Netronome supports eBPF offload for XDP and cls_bpf on Agilio SmartNICs.
The upstream kernel driver allows for the translation of kernel eBPF
programs into microcode. This firmware supports the eBPF microcode
generated by the in-kernel Just-in-Time (JIT) compiler. Firmware
also provides support for driver to enable bpftool to inspect and
manage offloaded eBPF maps and programs.
Please visit https://help.netronome.com for further information and
supported features.
