Configuring and managing HW rate limit tables.
The HW holds a table of rate limits, each rate is
associated with an index in that table.
Later a Send Queue uses this index to set the rate limit.
Multiple Send Queues can have the same rate limit, which is
represented by a single entry in this table.
Even though a rate can be shared, each queue is being rate
limited independently of others.
The SW shadow of this table holds the rate itself,
the index in the HW table and the refcount (number of queues)
working with this rate.
The exported functions are mlx5_rl_add_rate and mlx5_rl_remove_rate.
Number of different rates and their values are derived
from HW capabilities.

On SR-IOV profiles, when the user connects a Linux Bridge or OVS to a BE3
vport, they suffer the "broadcast/multicast echo" problem. BE3 EVB echoes
broadcast and multicast packets back to PF's vport confusing the
Linux bridge. BE3 relies on the src-mac addr being programmed on the
interface to avoid sending back an echo of a broadcast or multicast packet
on a vPort. When a Linux bridge is connected to a BE3, the mac-addr of the
VM behind the bridge doesn't get configured on the vPort and so echo
cancellation doesn't work.
This patch worksaround this problem by disabling the EVB initially
and re-enabling it *only* when SR-IOV is enabled by the user. For the
driver fix to work, the BE3 FW version must be >= 11.1.84.0.

be2net so far supported creation of RX/TX queues only in pairs.
On configs where rx and tx queue counts are different, creation of only
the lesser number of queues has been supported.
This patch now allows a combination of RX/TX-only channels along with
combined channels. N TX-queues and M RX-queues can be created with the
following cmds:
ethtool -L ethX combined N rx M-N (when N < M)
ethtool -L ethX combined M tx N-M (when M < N)
Setting both RX-only and TX-only channels is still not supported.
It is mandatory to create atleast one combined channel.

The EQs available on a function are shared between NIC and RoCE.
The be_max_eqs() macro was so far being used to refer to the max number of
EQs available for NIC. This has caused some confusion in the code. To fix
this confusion this patch introduces a new macro called be_max_nic_eqs()
to refer to the max number of EQs avialable for NIC only and renames
be_max_eqs() to be_max_func_eqs().

The issue comes when there are multiple threads attempting to use the
mailbox facility at the same time. The issue is the for the Virtual
Function Driver, the only way to get the Virtual Interface statistics
is to issue mailbox commands to ask the firmware for the VI Stats.
And, because the VI Stats command can only retrieve a smallish number of
stats per mailbox command, we have to issue three mailbox commands in quick
succession. When ethtool or netstat command to get interface stats and
interface up/down is run in a loop for every 0.1 sec, we observed
mailbox collisions. And out of the two commands one would fail with
the present code, since we don't queue the second command.
To overcome the above issue, added a queue to access the mailbox.
Whenever a mailbox command is issued add it to the queue. If its at the
head issue the mailbox command, else wait for the existing command to
complete. Usually command takes less than a milli-second to complete.
Also timeout from the loop, if the command under execution takes
long time to run.
In reality, the number of mailbox access collisions is going to be very
rare since no one runs such abusive script.

Due to a typo we would always be using the MIB counter width of the
first element of the counter array instead of the current element, and
we would always be accessing the register statistics with a 64-bits
read, while some could be 32-bits. This got unnoticed in testing with
MDIO and SRAB which tolerate doing this, but testing with the SPI bus
revealed bogus values being returned. Fix this by using the proper
iterator here.

There are situations in which a vPort is destroyed while still holding
references to device's resources such as FIDs and FDB records. This can
happen, for example, when a VLAN device is deleted while still being
bridged.
Instead of trying to make sure vPort destruction is invoked when it no
longer uses device's resources, just free them upon destruction. This
simplifies the code, as we no longer need to take different situations
into account when events are received - cleanup is taken care of in one
place.

FDB entries are learned using {Port / LAG ID, FID} and therefore should
be flushed whenever a port (vPort) leaves its FID (vFID).
However, when the bridge port is a LAG device (or a VLAN device on top),
then FDB flushing is conditional. Ports removed from such LAG
configurations must not trigger flushing, as other ports might still be
members in the LAG and therefore the bridge port is still active.
The decision whether to flush or not was previously computed in the
netdevice notification block, but in order to flush the entries when a
port leaves its FID this decision should be computed there.
Strip the notification block from this logic and instead move it to one
FDB flushing function that is invoked from both the FID / vFID leave
functions.
When port isn't member in LAG, FDB flushing should always occur.
Otherwise, it should occur only when the last port (vPort) member in the
LAG leaves the FID (vFID).
This will allow us - in the next patch - to simplify the cleanup code
paths that are hit whenever the topology above the port netdevs changes.

When L3 interfaces will be introduced a vPort won't necessarily have a
FID assigned to it. This can happen if it's not member in a bridge (in
which case it's assigned a vFID) or doesn't have an IP address (in which
case it's assigned an rFID).
Therefore, instead check the VID parameter to test whether a port is a
vPort or not.

In a very similar way to the vFIDs, make the first 4K FIDs - used in the
VLAN-aware bridge - use the new FID struct.
Upon first use of the FID by any of the ports do the following:
1) Create the FID
2) Setup a matching flooding entry
3) Create a mapping for the FID
Unlike vFIDs, upon creation of a FID we always create a global
VID-to-FID mapping, so that ports without upper vPorts can use it
instead of creating an explicit {Port, VID} to FID mapping.
When a port leaves a FID the reverse is performed. Whenever the FID's
reference count reaches zero the FID is deleted along with the global
mapping.
The per-FID struct will later allow us to configure L3 interfaces on top
of the VLAN-aware bridge.

When a vPort is created or when it joins a bridge we always do the same
set of operations:
1) Create the vFID, if not already created
2) Setup flooding for the vFID
3) Map the {Port, VID} to the vFID
When a vPort is destroyed or when it leaves a bridge the reverse is
performed.
Encapsulate the above in join / leave functions and simplify the code.
FIDs and rFIDs will use a similar set of functions.

Up until now we had a dedicated struct only for vFIDs, but before
introducing support for L3 interfaces we need to make it generic and
use it for all three types of FIDs:
1) FIDs - 0..4K-1, used for the VLAN-aware bridge
2) vFIDs - 4K..15K-1, used for VLAN-unaware bridges
3) rFIDs - 15K..16K-1, used to direct traffic to / from the router in
the device. Will be introduced later in the series.
The three types of L3 interfaces - Router InterFaces, RIFs - that will
be introduced correspond to the three types of FIDs and are configured
using them. Therefore, we'll need to store the links between them as
well as a reference count on the underlying FID, so that the
corresponding RIF will be destroyed when it reaches zero.
Note that the lower 0.5K vFIDs are currently used for for non-bridged
netdevs, so that traffic could be flooded to the CPU port. However, when
rFIDs will be introduced we'll no longer need these and they too will be
used for VLAN-unaware bridges.
Make the vFID struct generic by renaming it and some of its fields. FIDs
will be converted to use it later in the series.
