This patch adds support for tc mqprio offload,
using this different traffic classes on the adapter
can be utilized based on configured priority to tc map.
For example -
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root mqprio num_tc 4 map 0 1 2 3
This will cause SKBs with priority 0,1,2,3 to transmit
over tc 0,1,2,3 hardware queues respectively.

just those fields as well. Although, at a time just one
type of flow configuration is supported due to limited

There may be a need for VF driver to request PF to explicitly update its

e.g. When user assigns a MAC address to VF while VF is still down,
and PF's bulletin board contains different MAC address, in this case,
when VF's interface is brought up, it gets loaded with MAC address from
bulletin board which is not desirable.

In order to access HW registers driver needs to acquire a PTT entry
[mapping between bar memory and internal chip address].
Since acquiring PTT entries could fail [at least in theory] as their
number is finite and other flows can hold them, we reserve special PTT
entries for 'important' enough flows - ones we want to guarantee that
would not be susceptible to such issues.
One such special entry is the 'main' PTT which is meant to be used in
flows such as chip initialization and de-initialization.
However, there are other flows that are also using that same entry
for their own purpose, and might run concurrently with the original
flows [notice that for most cases using the main-ptt by mistake, such
a race is still impossible, at least today].
This patch re-organizes the various functions that currently use the
main_ptt in one of two ways:
- If a function shouldn't use the main_ptt it starts acquiring and
releasing it's own PTT entry and use it instead. Notice if those
functions previously couldn't fail, they now can [as acquisition
might fail].
- Change the prototypes so that the main_ptt would be received as
a parameter [instead of explicitly accessing it].
This prevents the future risk of adding codes that introduces new
use-cases for flows using the main_ptt, ones that might be in race
with the actual 'main' flows.

Today qede requests contexts that would suffice for 64 'whole'
combined queues [192 meant for 64 rx, tx and xdp tx queues],
but registers netdev and limits the number of queues based on
information received by qed. In turn, qed doesn't take context
into account when informing qede how many queues it can support.
This would lead to a configuration problem in case user tries
configuring >64 combined queues to interface [or >96 in case
xdp isn't enabled]. Since we don't have a mangement firware
that actually provides so many interrupt lines to a single
device we're currently safe but that's about to change soon.
The new maximum is hence changed:
- For RoCE devices, the limit would remain 64.
- For non-RoCE devices, the limit might be higher [depending
on the actual configuration of the device].
qed would start enforcing that limit in both scenarios.

The driver needs to maintain several FW/HW-indices for each one of
its queues. Currently, that mapping is done by the QED where it uses
an rx/tx array of so-called hw-cids, populating them whenever a new
queue is opened and clearing them upon destruction of said queues.
This maintenance is far from ideal - there's no real reason why
QED needs to maintain such a data-structure. It becomes even worse
when considering the fact that the PF's queues and its child VFs' queues
are all mapped into the same data-structure.
As a by-product, the set of parameters an interface needs to supply for
queue APIs is non-trivial, and some of the variables in the API
structures have different meaning depending on their exact place
in the configuration flow.
This patch re-organizes the way L2 queues are configured and maintained.
In short:
- Required parameters for queue init are now well-defined.
- Qed would allocate a queue-cid based on parameters.
Upon initialization success, it would return a handle to caller.
- Queue-handle would be maintained by entity requesting queue-init,
not necessarily qed.
- All further queue-APIs [update, destroy] would use the opaque
handle as reference for the queue instead of various indices.
The possible owners of such handles:
- PF queues [qede] - complete handles based on provided configuration.
- VF queues [qede] - fw-context-less handles, containing only relative
information; Only the PF-side would need the absolute indices
for configuration, so they're omitted here.
- VF queues [qed, PF-side] - complete handles based on VF initialization.
