docs: net: update devmem code examples
Update the code examples - update the YNL sample with the latest(?) APIs - struct dmabuf_tx_cmsg does not exist, use __u32 directly Acked-by: Stanislav Fomichev <sdf@fomichev.me> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260526160151.2793354-5-kuba@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
