Change all the 'stack' naming to 'auto' (or other meaningful term);
the device address list is based on more than just what the network
stack wants, and the no-match filters aren't really what the stack
wants at all.

MAC filters inserted automatically by the driver, based on the device
address list (EF10) or no-match filters (Siena), should be overridable
at MANUAL or REQUIRED priority. Currently they themselves have
REQUIRED priority and this requires some odd special-casing.
We also can't reliably tell whether such a MAC filter has or has
not been overridden. We just remember that it is wanted by the
stack (RX_STACK flag).
Add another priority level, AUTO, between HINT and MANUAL, and
use this for the automatic filters while they have not been
overridden. Remove the RX_STACK flag. Add an RX_OVER_AUTO
flag which is set only when an AUTO filter has been overridden
(or was requested to be inserted while a higher-priority filter
existed).

The EF10 implementation already does this, and it makes more logical
sense to group the RSS hash key and indirection table together.
Rename the operation to rx_push_rss_config.

The TX path firmware for EF10 supports 'option descriptors' to control
offloads and various other features. Add a flag and field for these
in struct efx_tx_buffer, and don't treat them as DMA descriptors on
completion.

On EF10, the firmware will initiate a queue flush in certain
error cases. We need to accept that flush events might appear
at any time after a queue has been initialised, not just when
we try to flush them.
We can handle Falcon-architecture in just the same way.

Also, since we handle all DMA errors in the same way, merge
RESET_TYPE_(RX|TX)_DESC_FETCH into RESET_TYPE_DMA_ERROR.

On Falcon we implement MAC filtering requested by the stack using the
MAC wrapper's single unicast filter and multicast hash filter. Siena
is very similar, though MAC configuration is mediated by the MC.
Since MCDI operations may sleep, reconfiguration is deferred from
ndo_set_rx_mode to a work item. However, it still updates the private
variables describing the filter state synchronously. Contrary to
comments, the later use of these variables is not protected using the
address lock, resulting in race conditions.
Move the state update to a new function
efx_farch_filter_sync_rx_mode() and make the Falcon-arch MAC
configuration functions call that, so that its use is consistently
serialised by the mac_lock.
Invert and rename the promiscuous flag to the more accurate
unicast_filter, and comment that both this and multicast_hash are
not used on EF10.

MAC filters inserted on request from the stack (ndo_set_rx_mode)
should allow manual steering but not removal. Currently we have a
special case for Siena's all-multicast and all-unicast MAC filters,
but on EF10 we need to allow for steering of precise MAC filters as
well.
The EFX_FILTER_FLAG_RX_STACK flag changes the behaviour of replacement
and removal requests:
- Replacement *of* a filter with this flag never clears the flag but
does change steering and saved priority
- Replacement *by* a filter with this flag only sets the flag but does
not change steering
- Removal with priority < EFX_FILTER_PRI_REQUIRED really resets RX
steering and saved priority
This could support precise MAC filtering on Siena in future.
As a side-benefit, the default MAC filters are hidden from ethtool
until they are steered.

Move the special case for removal of default filters from
efx_farch_filter_table_clear_entry() into a wrapper function,
efx_farch_filter_table_remove(). Move the existence and priority
checks into the latter and use it where appropriate.

Aside from accelerated RFS, there is almost nothing that can be shared
between the filter table implementations for the Falcon architecture
and EF10.
Move the few shared functions into efx.c and rx.c and the rest into
farch.c. Introduce efx_nic_type operations for the implementation and
inline wrapper functions that call these.

The workarounds that currently use EFX_WORKAROUND_ALWAYS are in
Falcon-specific or Falcon-arch-specific code, so get rid of the
conditions altogether. Add/move comments as appropriate.

Add efx_nic_type operations for the many efx_nic functions that need
to be implemented different on EF10. For now, change most of the
existing efx_nic_*() functions into inline wrappers. As a later step,
we may be able to improve branch prediction for operations used on the
fast path by copying the pointers into each queue/channel structure.
Move the Falcon/Siena implementations to new file farch.c and rename
the functions and static data to use a prefix of 'efx_farch_'.
Move efx_may_push_tx_desc() to nic.h, as the EF10 TX code will also
use it.
