Mlx5 devlink health fw reporters and sw reset support
This series provides mlx5 firmware reset support and firmware devlink health
reporters.
1) Add initial mlx5 kernel documentation and include devlink health reporters
2) Add CR-Space access and FW Crdump snapshot support via devlink region_snapshot
3) Issue software reset upon FW asserts
4) Add fw and fw_fatal devlink heath reporters to follow fw errors indication by
dump and recover procedures and enable trigger these functionality by user.
4.1) fw reporter:
The fw reporter implements diagnose and dump callbacks.
It follows symptoms of fw error such as fw syndrome by triggering
fw core dump and storing it and any other fw trace into the dump buffer.
The fw reporter diagnose command can be triggered any time by the user to check
current fw status.
4.2) fw_fatal repoter:
The fw_fatal reporter implements dump and recover callbacks.
It follows fatal errors indications by CR-space dump and recover flow.
The CR-space dump uses vsc interface which is valid even if the FW command
interface is not functional, which is the case in most FW fatal errors. The
CR-space dump is stored as a memory region snapshot to ease read by address.
The recover function runs recover flow which reloads the driver and triggers fw
reset if needed.

Multipath hash policy value of 0 isn't distributing since the outer IP
dest and src aren't varied eventhough the inner ones are. Since the flow
is on the inner ones in the case of tunneled traffic, hashing on them is
desired.
This is done mainly for IP over GRE, hence only tested for that. But
anything else supported by flow dissection should work.
v2: Use skb_flow_dissect_flow_keys() directly so that other tunneling
can be supported through flow dissection (per Nikolay Aleksandrov).
v3: Remove accidental inclusion of ports in the hash keys and clarify
the documentation (Nikolay Alexandrov).

NAPI tx mode improves TCP behavior by enabling TCP small queues (TSQ).
TSQ reduces queuing ("bufferbloat") and burstiness.
Previous measurements have shown significant improvement for
TCP_STREAM style workloads. Such as those in commit 86a5df1495
("Merge branch 'virtio-net-tx-napi'").
There has been uncertainty about smaller possible regressions in
latency due to increased reliance on tx interrupts.
The above results did not show that, nor did I observe this when
rerunning TCP_RR on Linux 5.1 this week on a pair of guests in the
same rack. This may be subject to other settings, notably interrupt
coalescing.
In the unlikely case of regression, we have landed a credible runtime
solution. Ethtool can configure it with -C tx-frames [0|1] as of
commit 0c465be183 ("virtio_net: ethtool tx napi configuration").
NAPI tx mode has been the default in Google Container-Optimized OS
(COS) for over half a year, as of release M70 in October 2018,
without any negative reports.

To remove rtnl lock dependency in tc filter update API when using clsact
Qdisc, set QDISC_CLASS_OPS_DOIT_UNLOCKED flag in clsact Qdisc_class_ops.
Clsact Qdisc ops don't require any modifications to be used without rtnl
lock on tc filter update path. Implementation never changes its q->block
and only releases it when Qdisc is being destroyed. This means it is enough
for RTM_{NEWTFILTER|DELTFILTER|GETTFILTER} message handlers to hold clsact
Qdisc reference while using it without relying on rtnl lock protection.
Unlocked Qdisc ops support is already implemented in filter update path by
unlocked cls API patch set.

Presently the HNS driver enables the HNS H/W error interrupts after
the dev initialization is completed. However some exceptions such as
NCSI errors can occur when the network port driver is not loaded
and those errors required reporting to the BMC.
Therefore the firmware enabled all the HNS ras error interrupts
before the driver is loaded. And in some cases, there will be some
H/W errors remained unclear before reboot. Thus the HNS driver needs
to process and recover those hw errors occurred before HNS driver is
initialized.
This patch adds processing of the HNS hw errors(RAS and MSI-X)
which occurred before the driver initialization. For RAS, because
they are enabled by firmware, so we can detect specific bits, then
log and clear them. But for MSI-X which can not be enabled before
open vector0 irq, we can't detect the specific error bits, so we
just write 1 to all interrupt source registers to clear.

Presently the error handling code sets the reset level required
for the recovery of the hw errors to the reset framework in the
error_detected AER callback. However the rest_event would be
called later from the slot_reset callback. This can cause issue
of using the wrong reset_level if a high priority reset request
occur before the slot_reset is called.
This patch delays setting of the reset level, required
for the hw errors, to the reset framework until the
slot_reset is called.

The current vsock code for removal of socket from the list is both
subject to race and inefficient. It takes the lock, checks whether
the socket is in the list, drops the lock and if the socket was on the
list, deletes it from the list. This is subject to race because as soon
as the lock is dropped once it is checked for presence, that condition
cannot be relied upon for any decision. It is also inefficient because
if the socket is present in the list, it takes the lock twice.

Switch stmmac_mdio_reset to use GPIO descriptors. GPIO core handles the
"snps,reset-gpio" for GPIO descriptors so we don't need to take care of
it inside the driver anymore.
The advantage of this is that we now preserve the GPIO flags which are
passed via devicetree. This is required on some newer Amlogic boards
which use an Open Drain pin for the reset GPIO. This pin can only output
a LOW signal or switch to input mode but it cannot output a HIGH signal.
There are already devicetree bindings for these special cases and GPIO
core already takes care of them but only if we use GPIO descriptors
instead of GPIO numbers.

If the queue is full, they both increment a new atomic counter

net/mlx5: use indirect call wrappers
The mlx5_core driver uses several indirect calls in fast-path, some of them

This series leverage the indirect call wrappers infrastructure the avoid
the expansive RETPOLINE overhead for 2 indirect calls in fast-path.
Each call is addressed on a different patch, plus we need to introduce a couple
of additional helpers to cope with the higher number of possible direct-call

v2 -> v3:
- do not add more INDIRECT_CALL_* macros
- use only the direct calls always available regardless of

v1 -> v2:
- update the direct call list and use a macro to define it,

To ensure that even the last listed direct call experience

Together with the previous indirect call patch, this gives
~6% performance improvement in raw UDP tput.
