7ea6eb3f56 switchdev: introduce transaction item queue for attr_set and obj_add
Now, the memory allocation in prepare/commit state is done separatelly
in each driver (rocker). Introduce the similar mechanism in generic
switchdev code, in form of queue. That can be used not only for memory
allocations, but also for different items. Abort item destruction
is handled as well.

dd19f83d6c rocker: hook ndo_neigh_destroy to cleanup neigh refs in driver
Rocker driver tracks arp_tbl neighs to resolve IPv4 route nexthops.  The
driver uses NETEVENT_NEIGH_UPDATE for neigh adds and updates, but there is
no event when the neigh is removed from the device (such as when the device
goes admin down).  This patches hooks ndo_neigh_destroy so the driver can
know when a neigh is removed from the device.  In response, the driver will
purge the neigh entry from its internal tbl.

I didn't find an in-tree users of ndo_neigh_destroy, so I'm not sure if
this ndo is vestigial or if there are out-of-tree users.  In any case, it
does what I need here.  An alternative design would be to generate
NETEVENT_NEIGH_UPDATE event when neigh is being destroyed, setting state to
NUD_NONE so driver knows neigh entry is dead.

b4ad7baa01 bridge: del external_learned fdbs from device on flush or ageout
We need to delete from offload the device externally learnded fdbs when any
one of these events happen:

1) Bridge ages out fdb.  (When bridge is doing ageing vs. device doing
ageing.  If device is doing ageing, it would send SWITCHDEV_FDB_DEL
directly).

2) STP state change flushes fdbs on port.

3) User uses sysfs interface to flush fdbs from bridge or bridge port:

	echo 1 >/sys/class/net/BR_DEV/bridge/flush
	echo 1 >/sys/class/net/BR_PORT/brport/flush

4) Offload driver send event SWITCHDEV_FDB_DEL to delete fdb entry.

For rocker, we can now get called to delete fdb entry in wait and nowait
contexts, so set NOWAIT flag when deleting fdb entry.

7616dcbb21 switchdev: documentation: use switchdev_port_obj_xxx for IPv4 FIB add/modify/delete ops
Clarify in documentation and code that IPV4 FIB add operation is used for
both adding a new FIB entry to the device and for modifying an existing FIB
entry on the device.

Also, remove left-over references to ipv4_fib ops and replace with details
on SWITCHDEV_PORT_IPV4_FIB object.

4ceec22d6d switchdev: bring documentation up-to-date
Much need updated of switchdev documentation to cover what's been
implmented to-date.  There are some XXX comments in the text for
unimplemented or broken items.  I'd like to keep these in there (poor-man's
TODO list) and update the document once each issue is resolved.

007f790c82 net: introduce generic switch devices support
The goal of this is to provide a possibility to support various switch
chips. Drivers should implement relevant ndos to do so. Now there is
only one ndo defined:
- for getting physical switch id is in place.

Note that user can use random port netdevice to access the switch.
