Amit Cohen bf677bd25a mlxsw: Allow 802.1d and .1ad VxLAN bridges to coexist on Spectrum>=2
Currently only one EtherType can be configured for pushing in tunnels
because EtherType is configured using SPVID.et_vlan for tunnel port.

This behavior is forbidden by comparing mlxsw_sp_nve_config struct for
each new tunnel, the struct contains 'ethertype' field which means that
only one EtherType is legal at any given time. Remove 'ethertype' field to
allow creating VxLAN devices with different bridges.

To allow using several types of VxLAN bridges at the same time, the
EtherType should be determined at the egress port. This behavior is
achieved by setting SPVID to decide which EtherType to push at egress and
for each local_port which is member in 802.1ad bridge, set SPEVET.et_vlan
to ether_type1 (i.e., 0x88A8).

Use switchdev_ops->init() to set different mlxsw_sp_bridge_ops for
different ASICs in order to be able to split the behavior when port joins /
leaves an 802.1ad bridge in different ASICs.

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.
