Shay Drory 8680a60fc1 net/mlx5: Let user configure max_macs generic param
Currently, max_macs is taking 70Kbytes of memory per function. This
size is not needed in all use cases, and is critical with large scale.
Hence, allow user to configure the number of max_macs.

For example, to reduce the number of max_macs to 1, execute::
$ devlink dev param set pci/0000:00:0b.0 name max_macs value 1 \
              cmode driverinit
$ devlink dev reload pci/0000:00:0b.0

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
