Docs cleanup: stale-claim conflicts fixed (e810 stamps/probe.go, CX-5 candidate title, committed-path perf table now the X520 20G result with E810-era rows marked historical, ice-pair ring note), irdma/ice notes moved to e810, state.md halved (done-checklist, RX-steering and standing-goals duplication out; ECD suppression fact into modules/fs), changelog framing flattened to present tense

X520 returns as product NIC: smoothed-bucket rate plan (read-time buckets, backward excess-fill, rate as headline not verdict) dissolves the per-frame RX timestamp requirement; CX-5 retired with full record (MCIA via VSC/ICMD proven, fwctl write-block, card-global module index, ~150ms mailbox quantum unexplained, FS link deadlock); E810 below-AQ bit-bang idea recorded and retired; FS+Wiitek pair and length return as goals

BCM bridge tolerates MCIA offset-write-then-read framing, proven on hardware via bcm_mcia_emu.py; MCIA question narrows to firmware acceptance of 0x56 and offset/framing details

Dissolve resolved analyses into standalone device docs; open-questions.md keeps only the four live problems; discard NIC-timestamp length path (BCM ECD is proven) and Aquantia length trivia (30m part, oracle-only)

Resolve X520 open questions on hardware: ETQF raw-L2 steering and single-hold compound I2C proven; 82599 has no all-packet exact-timestamp path so it is disqualified as product NIC (diagnostics-only), counter route rejected for a cable tester
