Starting with firmware version MC10.18.0, we have support for
L2 flow control. Asymmetrical configuration (Rx or Tx only) is
supported, but not pause frame autonegotioation.
Pause frame configuration is done via ethtool. By default, we start
with flow control enabled on both Rx and Tx. Changes are propagated
to hardware through firmware commands, using two flags (PAUSE,
ASYM_PAUSE) to specify Rx and Tx pause configuration, as follows:
PAUSE | ASYM_PAUSE | Rx pause | Tx pause
----------------------------------------
0 | 0 | disabled | disabled
0 | 1 | disabled | enabled
1 | 0 | enabled | enabled
1 | 1 | enabled | disabled
The hardware can automatically send pause frames when the number
of buffers in the pool goes below a predefined threshold. Due to
this, flow control is incompatible with Rx frame queue taildrop
(both mechanisms target the case when processing of ingress
frames can't keep up with the Rx rate; for large frames, the number
of buffers in the pool may never get low enough to trigger pause
frames as long as taildrop is enabled). So we set pause frame
generation and Rx FQ taildrop as mutually exclusive.

Add support for inserting and deleting Rx flow classification
rules through ethtool.
We support classification based on some header fields for
flow-types ether, ip4, tcp4, udp4 and sctp4.
Rx queues are core affine, so the action argument effectively
selects on which cpu the matching frame will be processed.
Discarding the frame is also supported.

For firmware versions that support it, configure an Rx flow
classification key at probe time.
Hardware expects all rules in the classification table to share
the same key. So we setup a key containing all supported fields
at driver init and when a user adds classification rules through
ethtool, we will just mask out the unused header fields.
Since the key composition process is the same for flow
classification and hashing, reuse existing code where possible.

The Management Complex (MC) firmware initially allowed the
configuration of a single key to be used both for Rx flow hashing
and flow classification. This prevented us from supporting
Rx flow classification through ethtool.
Starting with version 10.7.0, the Management Complex(MC) offers
a new set of APIs for separate configuration of Rx hashing and
classification keys.
Update the Rx flow hashing support to use the new API, if available.
