The port netdevs are each associated with a different local port number
in the device. These local ports are grouped into groups of 4 (e.g.
(1-4), (5-8)) called clusters. The cluster constitutes the one of two
possible modules they can be mapped to. This mapping is board-specific
and done by the device's firmware during init.

When splitting a port by 4, the device requires us to first unmap all
the ports in the cluster and then map each to a single lane in the module
associated with the port netdev used as the handle for the operation.
This means that two port netdevs will disappear, as only 100Gb/s (4
lanes) ports can be split and we are guaranteed to have two of these
((1, 3), (5, 7) etc.) in a cluster.

When unsplit occurs we need to reinstantiate the two original 100Gb/s
ports and map each to its origianl module. Therefore, during driver init
store the initial local port to module mapping, so it can be used later
during unsplitting.

Note that a by 2 split doesn't require us to store the mapping, as we
only need to reinstantiate one port whose module is known.

When splitting a port we replace it with 2 or 4 other ports. To be able
to do that we need to remove the original port netdev and unmap it from
its module. However, we first mark it as disabled, as active ports

tc software only

This adds a software only flag to tc but incorporates a bunch of comments
from the original attempt at this.

First instead of having the offload decision logic be embedded in cls_u32
I lifted into cls_pkt.h so it can be used anywhere and named the flag
TCA_CLS_FLAGS_SKIP_HW (Thanks Jiri ;)

In order to do this I put the flag defines in pkt_cls.h as well. However
it was suggested that perhaps these flags could be lifted into the
upper layer of TCA_ as well but I'm afraid this can not be done with
existing tc design as far as I can tell. The problem is the filters are
packed and unpacked in the classifier specific code and pushing the flags
through the high level doesn't seem easily doable. And we already have
this design where classifiers handle generic options such as actions and
policers. So I think adding one more thing here is OK as 'tc', et. al.
already know how to handle this type of thing.

In the initial implementation the only way to stop a rule from being
inserted into the hardware table was via the device feature flag.
However this doesn't work well when working on an end host system
where packets are expect to hit both the hardware and software
datapaths.

For example we can imagine a rule that will match an IP address and
increment a field. If we install this rule in both hardware and
software we may increment the field twice. To date we have only
added support for the drop action so we have been able to ignore
these cases. But as we extend the action support we will hit this
example plus more such cases. Arguably these are not even corner
cases in many working systems these cases will be common.

To avoid forcing the driver to always abort (i.e. the above example)
this patch adds a flag to add a rule in software only. A careful
user can use this flag to build software and hardware datapaths
that work together. One example we have found particularly useful
is to use hardware resources to set the skb->mark on the skb when
the match may be expensive to run in software but a mark lookup
in a hash table is cheap. The idea here is hardware can do in one
lookup what the u32 classifier may need to traverse multiple lists
and hash tables to compute. The flag is only passed down on inserts.
On deletion to avoid stale references in hardware we always try
to remove a rule if it exists.

The flags field is part of the classifier specific options. Although
it is tempting to lift this into the generic structure doing this
proves difficult do to how the tc netlink attributes are implemented
along with how the dump/change routines are called. There is also
precedence for putting seemingly generic pieces in the specific
classifier options such as TCA_U32_POLICE, TCA_U32_ACT, etc. So
although not ideal I've left FLAGS in the u32 options as well as it
simplifies the code greatly and user space has already learned how
to manage these bits ala 'tc' tool.

Another thing if trying to update a rule we require the flags to
be unchanged. This is to force user space, software u32 and
the hardware u32 to keep in sync. Thanks to Simon Horman for
catching this case.

In the original series drivers would get offload requests for cls_u32

bridge/ovs: avoid skb head copy on frame forwarding

Currently, while when an OVS or Linux bridge is used to forward frames towards
some tunnel device, a skb_head_copy() may occur if the ingress device do not
provide enough headroom for the tx encapsulation.

This patch series tries to address the issue implementing a new ndo operation to
allow the master device to control the headroom used when allocating the skb on
frame reception.

Said operation is used by the Linux bridge to notify the bridged ports of
needed_headroom changes, and similar bookkeeping and behaviour is also added to
openvswitch, on a per datapath basis.

Finally, the operation is implemented for veth and tun device, which give
performance improvement in the 6-12% range when forwarding frames from said
devices towards a vxlan tunnel.

v2:
- fix netdev_get_fwd_headroom() behaviour
- remove some code duplication with the netdev_set_rx_headroom() and
   netdev_reset_rx_headroom() helpers
- handle headroom reset on [v]port removal/deletion
- initialize tun align to the old default value

v3:
- fix a comment typo

The rx headroom for veth dev is the peer device needed_headroom.
Avoid ping-pong updates setting the private flag IFF_PHONY_HEADROOM.

This avoids skb head reallocation when forwarding from a veth dev
towards a device adding some kind of encapsulation.

When transmitting frames below the MTU size towards a vxlan device,
this gives about 10% performance speed-up when OVS is used to connect
the veth and the vxlan device and a little more when using a
plain Linux bridge.

ndo_set_rx_headroom controls the align value used by tun devices to
allocate skbs on frame reception.
When the xmit device adds a large encapsulation, this avoids an skb
head reallocation on forwarding.

The measured improvement when forwarding towards a vxlan dev with
frame size below the egress device MTU is as follow:

vxlan over ipv6, bridged: +6%
vxlan over ipv6, ovs: +7%

In case of ipv4 tunnels there is no improvement, since the tun
device default alignment provides enough headroom to avoid the skb
head reallocation.

1. The MAC address is valid.  This MAC address is assigned by the PF and
it needs to override the current VF MAC address.

2. The MAC address is zero.  The VF will use a random MAC address by default.
By storing this 0 MAC address in the VF structure, it will allow the VF
