Yevgeny Kliteynik 11a45def2e net/mlx5: DR, Add support for SF vports
Move all the vport capabilities to a separate struct and store vport caps
in XArray: SFs vport numbers will not come in the same range as VF vports,
so the existing implementation of vport capabilities as a fixed size array
is not suitable here.

XArray is a perfect fit: it is efficient when the indices used are densely
clustered. In addition to being a perfect fit as a dynamic data structure,
XArray also provides locking - it uses RCU and an internal spinlock to
synchronise access, so no additional protection needed.

Now except for the eswitch manager vport, all other vports (including the
uplink vport) are handled in the same way: when a new go-to-vport action
is added, this vport's caps are loaded from the xarray. If it is the first
time for this particular vport number, then its capabilities are queried
from FW and filled in into the appropriate entry.

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.
