net: dsa: b53: ARL improvements

This patch series improves the b53 driver ARL search code by
renaming the ARL entries to be reflective of what they are: bins, and
then introduce the number of buckets so we can properly bound check ARL
searches.

The final patch removes an unused argument.

ARL searches are done by reading two ARL entries at a time, do not cap
the search at 1024 which would only limit us to half of the possible ARL
capacity, but use b53_max_arl_entries() instead which does the right
multiplication between bins and indexes.

Currently, tcp_sack_new_ofo_skb() sends an ack if prior
acks were 'compressed', if room has to be made in tp->selective_acks[]

But there is no guarantee all four sack ranges can be included
in SACK option. As a matter of fact, when TCP timestamps option
is used, only three SACK ranges can be included.

Lets assume only two ranges can be included, and force the ack:

- When we touch more than 2 ranges in the reordering
  done if tcp_sack_extend() could be done.

- If we have at least 2 ranges when adding a new one.

This enforces that before a range is in third or fourth
position, at least one ACK packet included it in first/second
position.

In commit 86de5921 ("tcp: defer SACK compression after DupThresh")
I added a TCP_FASTRETRANS_THRESH bias to tp->compressed_ack in order
to enable sack compression only after 3 dupacks.

Since we plan to relax this rule for flows that involve
stacks not requiring this old rule, this patch adds
a distinct tp->dup_ack_counter.

This means the TCP_FASTRETRANS_THRESH value is now used
in a single location that a future patch can adjust:

	if (tp->dup_ack_counter < TCP_FASTRETRANS_THRESH) {
		tp->dup_ack_counter++;
		goto send_now;
	}

This patch also introduces tcp_sack_compress_send_ack()
helper to ease following patch comprehension.

This patch refines LINUX_MIB_TCPACKCOMPRESSED to not
count the acks that we had to send if the timer expires
or tcp_sack_compress_send_ack() is sending an ack.

mlxsw: Prepare SPAN API for upcoming changes

Switched port analyzer (SPAN) is used for packet mirroring. Over mlxsw
this is achieved by attaching tc-mirred action to either matchall or
flower classifier.

The current API used to configure SPAN consists of two functions:
mlxsw_sp_span_mirror_add() and mlxsw_sp_span_mirror_del().

These two functions pack a lot of different operations:

* SPAN agent configuration: Determining the egress port and optional
  headers that need to encapsulate the mirrored packet (when mirroring
  to a gretap, for example)

* Egress mirror buffer configuration: Allocating / freeing a buffer when
  port is analyzed (inspected) at egress

* SPAN agent binding: Binding the SPAN agent to a trigger, if any. The
  current triggers are incoming / outgoing packet and they are only used
  for matchall-based mirroring

This non-modular design makes it difficult to extend the API for future
changes, such as new mirror targets (CPU) and new global triggers (early
dropped packets, for example).

Therefore, this patch set gradually adds APIs for above mentioned
operations and then converts the two existing users to use it instead of
the old API. No functional changes intended. Tested with existing
mirroring selftests.

Patch set overview:

Patches #1-#5 gradually add the new API
Patches #6-#8 convert existing users to use the new API
Patch #9 removes the old API

As previously explained, each port whose outgoing traffic is analyzed
needs to have an egress mirror buffer.

The size of the egress mirror buffer is calculated based on various
parameters, two of which are the speed and the MTU of the port.

Therefore, when the MTU or the speed of a port change, the SPAN code is
called to see if the egress mirror buffer of the port needs to be
adjusted.

Currently, this is done by traversing all the SPAN agents and for each
SPAN agent the list of bound ports is traversed.

Instead of the above, traverse the recently added list of analyzed
ports.

This will later allow us to remove the old SPAN API.

Currently, a SPAN agent can only be bound to a per-port trigger where
the trigger is either an incoming packet (INGRESS) or an outgoing packet
(EGRESS) to / from the port.

A follow-up patch set will introduce the concept of global triggers and
per-{port, TC} enablement. With global triggers, the trigger entry is
only keyed by a trigger and not by a port and a trigger. The trigger can
be, for example, a packet that was early dropped.

While the binding between the SPAN agent and the trigger is performed
only once, the trigger entry needs to be reference counted, as the
trigger can be enabled on multiple ports.

Add APIs to bind / unbind a SPAN agent to a trigger and reference count
the trigger entry in preparation for global triggers.

An analyzed port is a port whose incoming / outgoing traffic is mirrored
to a SPAN agent and analyzed on a remote server.

A port can be analyzed by multiple tc filters and therefore the
corresponding analyzed port entry needs to be reference counted. This is
significant because ports whose outgoing traffic is analyzed need to
have an egress mirror buffer.

Add APIs to get / put an analyzed port. Allocate an egress mirror buffer
on a port when it is first inspected at egress and free the buffer when
it is no longer inspected at egress.

Protect the list of analyzed ports with a mutex, as a later patch will
traverse it from a context in which RTNL lock is not held.
