This PR updates the driver to compile with the latest Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS.

The parameters of netif_napi_add() have been changed in the recent kernel versions. From kernel version 6.1 int weight is not a part of the netif_napi_add()API anymore but is set as a default one:

The latest version with the old API: 6.0.19 https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.0.19/source/include/linux/netdevice.h#L2567

We have tested this on 6.2.0-26 and it works. I would suggest this change be accepted but include kernel version 6.2
