net: dsa: add cross-chip VLAN support
The current code in DSA does not support cross-chip VLAN. This means

adding a VLAN to p9 won't be enough to reach the CPU, until at least one
port of sw0 and sw1 join the VLAN as well and become aware of the VID.
This patchset makes the DSA core program the VLAN on the CPU and DSA
links itself, which brings seamlessly cross-chip VLAN support to DSA.
With this series applied*, the hardware VLAN tables of a 3-switch setup
look like this after adding a VLAN to only one port of the end switch:
# cat /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/default_pvid

# cat /sys/kernel/debug/mv88e6xxx/sw{0,1,2}/vtu

('x' is excluded, 'u' is untagged, '=' is unmodified DSA and CPU ports.)
Completely removing a VLAN entry (which is currently the responsibility
of drivers anyway) is not supported yet since it requires some caching.

To achieve that, remove the condition skipping other target switches,
and add a bitmap of VLAN members, eventually containing the target port,
if we are programming the switch target.
This will allow us to easily add other VLAN members, such as the DSA or

rxrpc: Tx length parameter
Here's a set of patches that allows someone initiating a client call with
AF_RXRPC to indicate upfront the total amount of data that will be
transmitted. This will allow AF_RXRPC to encrypt directly from source
buffer to packet rather than having to copy into the buffer and only
encrypt when it's full (the encrypted portion of the packet starts with a
length and so we can't encrypt until we know what the length will be).
The three patches are:
(1) Provide a means of finding out what control message types are actually
supported. EINVAL is reported if an unsupported cmsg type is seen, so
we don't want to set the new cmsg unless we know it will be accepted.
(2) Consolidate some stuff into a struct to reduce the parameter count on
the function that parses the cmsg buffer.
(3) Introduce the RXRPC_TX_LENGTH cmsg. This can be provided on the first
sendmsg() that contributes data to a client call request or a service
call reply. If provided, the user must provide exactly that amount of
data or an error will be incurred.

As the higher level communication only deals with "services" the
a service directory is required to keep track of local and remote
services. In order for qrtr clients to be informed about when the
service directory implementation is available some event needs to be
passed to them.
Rather than introducing support for broadcasting such a message in-band
to all open local sockets we flag each socket with ENETRESET, as there
are no other expected operations that would benefit from having support
from locally broadcasting messages.

Per the QMUX protocol specification a terminating node can send a BYE

this all information about remote services should be discarded and local
clients should be notified.
In the event that the link was brought down abruptly the router is
supposed to act like a BYE message has arrived. As there is no harm in
receiving an extra BYE from the remote this patch implements the latter
by injecting a BYE when the link to the remote is unregistered.

nfp: ctrl vNIC
This series adds the ability to use one vNIC as a control channel
for passing messages to and from the application firmware. The
implementation restructures the existing netdev vNIC code to be able
to deal with nfp_nets with netdev pointer set to NULL. Control vNICs
are not visible to userspace (other than for dumping ring state), and
since they don't have netdevs we use a tasklet for RX and simple skb
list for TX queuing.
Due to special status of the control vNIC we have to reshuffle the
init code a bit to make sure control vNIC will be fully brought up
(and therefore communication with app FW can happen) before any netdev
or port is visible to user space.
FW will designate which vNIC is supposed to be used as control one
by setting _pf%u_net_ctrl_bar symbol. Some FWs depend on metadata
being prepended to control message, some prefer to look at queue ID
to decide that something is a control message. Our implementation
can cater to both.
First two users of this code will be eBPF maps and flower offloads.

we know how many vNICs we will need to spawn.
Divide the function which spawns netdevs for vNICs into three parts:
