    devlink: convert flash_update to use params structure · bc75c054
    Jacob Keller authored
    The devlink core recently gained support for checking whether the driver
    supports a flash_update parameter, via `supported_flash_update_params`.
    However, parameters are specified as function arguments. Adding a new
    parameter still requires modifying the signature of the .flash_update
    callback in all drivers.
    
    Convert the .flash_update function to take a new `struct
    devlink_flash_update_params` instead. By using this structure, and the
    `supported_flash_update_params` bit field, a new parameter to
    flash_update can be added without requiring modification to existing
    drivers.
    
    As before, all parameters except file_name will require driver opt-in.
    Because file_name is a necessary field to for the flash_update to make
    sense, no "SUPPORTED" bitflag is provided and it is always considered
    valid. All future additional parameters will require a new bit in the
    supported_flash_update_params bitfield.
