Maxim Mikityanskiy b3b886cf96 net/mlx5e: Refactor on-the-fly configuration changes
This commit extends mlx5e_safe_switch_channels() to support on-the-fly
configuration changes, when the channels are open, but don't need to be
recreated. Such flows exist when a parameter being changed doesn't
affect how the queues are created, or when the queues can be modified
while remaining active.

Before this commit, such flows were handled as special cases on the
caller site. This commit adds this functionality to
mlx5e_safe_switch_channels(), allowing the caller to pass a boolean
indicating whether it's required to recreate the channels or it's
allowed to skip it. The logic of switching channel parameters is now
completely encapsulated into mlx5e_safe_switch_channels().

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
