Yevhen Orlov bca5859bc6 net: marvell: prestera: add hardware router objects accounting
Add prestera_router_hw.c. This file contains functions, which track HW
objects relations and links. This include implicity creation of objects,
that needed by requested one and implicity removing of objects, which
reference counter is became zero.

We need this layer, because kernel callbacks not always mapped to
creation of single HW object. So let it be two different layers - one
for subscribing and parsing kernel structures, and another
(prestera_router_hw.c) for HW objects relations tracking.

There is two types of objects on router_hw layer:
 - Explicit objects (rif_entry) : created by higher layer.
 - Implicit objects (vr) : created on demand by explicit objects.

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.
