Improve the readibility of the code setting ndev->max_mtu. This depends
on the hardware specific maximum defined by the MAC core, and also a
platform provided maximum.
The code was originally checking that the platform specific maximum was
between ndev->min_mtu..MAC core maximum before reducing ndev->max_mtu,
otherwise if the platform specific maximum was less than ndev->min_mtu,
issuing a warning.
Re-order the code to handle the case where the platform specific max is
below ndev->min_mtu, which then means that the subsequent test is
simply reducing ndev->max_mtu.
Update the comment, and add a few blank lines to separate the blocks of
code.

MPFS (Multi PF Switch) is enabled by default in Multi-Host environments,
the driver keeps a list of desired unicast mac addresses of all vports
(vfs/Sfs) and applied to HW via L2_table FW command.
Add API to dynamically apply the list of MACs to HW when needed for next
patches, to utilize this new API in devlink eswitch active/in-active uAPI.

Change the driver's default behavior to prefer the largest available RX
buffer length supported by the device for DQO format, rather than always
using the hardcoded 2K default.
Previously, the driver would initialize with
`GVE_DEFAULT_RX_BUFFER_SIZE` (2K), even if the device advertised support
for a larger length (e.g., 4K).
Performance observations:
- With LRO disabled, we observed >10% improvement in RX single stream
throughput when MTU >=2048.
- With LRO enabled, we observed >10% improvement in RX single stream
throughput when MTU >=1460.
- No regressions were observed.

Add support for getting and setting the RX buffer length via the
ethtool ring parameters (`ethtool -g`/`-G`). The driver restricts the
allowed buffer length to 2048 (SZ_2K) by default and allows 4096 (SZ_4K)
based on device options.
As XDP is only supported when the `rx_buf_len` is 2048, the driver now
enforces this in two places:
1. In `gve_xdp_set`, rejecting XDP programs if the current buffer
length is not 2048.
2. In `gve_set_rx_buf_len_config`, rejecting buffer length changes if XDP
is loaded and the new length is not 2048.

Previously, enabling header split via `gve_set_hsplit_config` also
implicitly changed the RX buffer length to 4K (if supported by the
device). This coupled two settings that should be orthogonal; this patch
removes that side effect.
After this change, `gve_set_hsplit_config` only toggles the header
split configuration. The RX buffer length is no longer affected and
must be configured independently.

x1000, x1600 and x1830 only accept RMII mode. PHY_INTF_SEL_RMII is only
selected with PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_RMII, and PHY_INTF_SEL_RMII has been
validated by the SoC's .valid_phy_intf_sel bitmask. Thus, checking the
interface mode in these functions becomes unnecessary. Remove these.
jz4775 is similar, except for a greater set of PHY_INTF_SEL_x valies.
Also remove the switch statement here.

In the current implementation, usbnet uses a fixed tx_qlen of:
USB2: 60 * 1518 bytes = 91.08 KB
USB3: 60 * 5 * 1518 bytes = 454.80 KB
Such large transmit queues can be problematic, especially for cellular
modems. For example, with a typical celluar link speed of 10 Mbit/s, a
fully occupied USB3 transmit queue results in:
454.80 KB / (10 Mbit/s / 8 bit/byte) = 363.84 ms
of additional latency.
This patch adds support for Byte Queue Limits (BQL) [1] to dynamically
manage the transmit queue size and reduce latency without sacrificing
throughput.
Testing was performed on various devices using the usbnet driver for
packet transmission:
- DELOCK 66045: USB3 to 2.5 GbE adapter (ax88179_178a)
- DELOCK 61969: USB2 to 1 GbE adapter (asix)
- Quectel RM520: 5G modem (qmi_wwan)
- USB2 Android tethering (cdc_ncm)
No performance degradation was observed for iperf3 TCP or UDP traffic,
while latency for a prioritized ping application was significantly
reduced. For example, using the USB3 to 2.5 GbE adapter, which was fully
utilized by iperf3 UDP traffic, the prioritized ping was improved from
1.6 ms to 0.6 ms. With the same setup but with a 100 Mbit/s Ethernet
connection, the prioritized ping was improved from 35 ms to 5 ms.

The ARL registers of BCM63XX embedded switches are somewhat unique. The
normal ARL table access registers have the same format as BCM5389, but
the ARL search registers differ:
* SRCH_CTL is at the same offset of BCM5389, but 16 bits wide. It does
not have more fields, just needs to be accessed by a 16 bit read.
* SRCH_RSLT_MACVID and SRCH_RSLT are aligned to 32 bit, and have shifted
offsets.
* SRCH_RSLT has a different format than the normal ARL data entry
register.
* There is only one set of ENTRY_N registers, implying a 1 bin layout.
So add appropriate ops for bcm63xx and let it use it.

When converting the Renesas network drivers to use flags from enum
hwtstamp_rx_filters to control when to timestamp packages instead of a
driver specific schema with bit-wise flags an error was made.
The bit-wise driver specific flags correct logic to set get_ts was:
q: RAVB_BE + tstamp_rx_ctrl: 0 => 0
q: RAVB_NC + tstamp_rx_ctrl: 0 => 0
q: RAVB_BE + tstamp_rx_ctrl: RAVB_RXTSTAMP_TYPE_V2_L2_EVENT => 0
q: RAVB_NC + tstamp_rx_ctrl: RAVB_RXTSTAMP_TYPE_V2_L2_EVENT => 1
q: RAVB_BE + tstamp_rx_ctrl: RAVB_RXTSTAMP_TYPE_ALL => 1
q: RAVB_NC + tstamp_rx_ctrl: RAVB_RXTSTAMP_TYPE_ALL => 1
The converted logic to use enum flags mapped tstamp_rx_ctrl as
0 to HWTSTAMP_FILTER_NONE
RAVB_RXTSTAMP_TYPE_V2_L2_EVENT to HWTSTAMP_FILTER_PTP_V2_L2_EVENT
RAVB_RXTSTAMP_TYPE_ALL to HWTSTAMP_FILTER_ALL
But the logic was incorrectly changed to:
q: RAVB_BE + tstamp_rx_ctrl: HWTSTAMP_FILTER_NONE => 1 (error)
q: RAVB_NC + tstamp_rx_ctrl: HWTSTAMP_FILTER_NONE => 0
q: RAVB_BE + tstamp_rx_ctrl: HWTSTAMP_FILTER_PTP_V2_L2_EVENT => 0
q: RAVB_NC + tstamp_rx_ctrl: HWTSTAMP_FILTER_PTP_V2_L2_EVENT => 1
q: RAVB_BE + tstamp_rx_ctrl: HWTSTAMP_FILTER_ALL => 1
q: RAVB_NC + tstamp_rx_ctrl: HWTSTAMP_FILTER_ALL => 0 (error)
This change restores the converted flag check to the correct logic of
the bit-wise driver specific flags.

Mohammad Heib introduces a new devlink parameter, max_mac_per_vf, for
controlling the maximum number of MAC address filters allowed by a VF. This
allows administrators to control the VF behavior in a more nuanced manner.

for VFs running on E800 series ice hardware. This improves performance and
scalability for virtualized network functions in 5G and LTE deployments.

Use stmmac_get_phy_intf_sel() to decode the PHY interface mode to the

control register to select the operating mode for the DWMAC core.
Note that when an unsupported interface mode is used, the array would
decode this to PHY_INTF_SEL_GMII_MII, so preserve this behaviour.
