Add flow control mechanism between paired netdevsim devices to stop the
TX queue during high traffic scenarios. When a receive queue becomes
congested (approaching NSIM_RING_SIZE limit), the corresponding transmit
queue on the peer device is stopped using netif_subqueue_try_stop().
Once the receive queue has sufficient capacity again, the peer's
transmit queue is resumed with netif_tx_wake_queue().
Key changes:
* Add nsim_stop_peer_tx_queue() to pause peer TX when RX queue is full
* Add nsim_start_peer_tx_queue() to resume peer TX when RX queue drains
* Implement queue mapping validation to ensure TX/RX queue count match
* Wake all queues during device unlinking to prevent stuck queues
* Use RCU protection when accessing peer device references
* wake the queues when changing the queue numbers
* Remove IFF_NO_QUEUE given it will enqueue packets now
The flow control only activates when devices have matching TX/RX queue
counts to ensure proper queue mapping.

Added a test for variable PMTU in broadcast routes.
This test uses iputils' ping and attempts to send a ping between
two peers, which should result in a regular echo reply.
This test will fail when the receiving peer does not receive the echo
request due to a lack of packet fragmentation.

Currently, __mkroute_output overrules the MTU value configured for
broadcast routes.
This buggy behaviour can be reproduced with:
ip link set dev eth1 mtu 9000
ip route del broadcast 192.168.0.255 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.2
ip route add broadcast 192.168.0.255 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.2 mtu 1500
The maximum packet size should be 1500, but it is actually 8000:
ping -b 192.168.0.255 -s 8000
Fix __mkroute_output to allow MTU values to be configured for
for broadcast routes (to support a mixed-MTU local-area-network).

The buffer bgx_sel used in snprintf() was too small to safely hold
the formatted string "BGX%d" for all valid bgx_id values. This caused
a -Wformat-truncation warning with `Werror` enabled during build.
Increase the buffer size from 5 to 7 and use `sizeof(bgx_sel)` in
snprintf() to ensure safety and suppress the warning.

There are also some RCR bits that are not defined but are used by the
driver, so add macro definitions for these bits to improve readability
and maintainability.
In addition, although FEC_RCR_HALFDPX has been defined, it is not used
in the driver. According to the description of FEC_RCR[1] in RM, it is
used to disable receive on transmit. Therefore, it is more appropriate
to redefine FEC_RCR[1] as FEC_RCR_DRT.

We default to raising an exception when unknown attrs are found
to make sure those are noticed during development.
When YNL CLI is "installed" and used by sysadmins erroring out
is not going to be helpful. It's far more likely the user space
is older than the kernel in that case, than that some attr is

When changing the page size on an mkey, the driver needs to set the
appropriate bits in the mkey mask to indicate which fields are being
modified.
The 6th bit of a page size in mlx5 driver is considered an extension,
and this bit has a dedicated capability and mask bits.
Previously, the driver was not setting this mask in the mkey mask when
performing page size changes, regardless of its hardware support,
potentially leading to an incorrect page size updates.
This fixes the issue by setting the relevant bit in the mkey mask when
performing page size changes on an mkey and the 6th bit of this field is
supported by the hardware.

ice: cleanups and preparation for live migration
Jake Keller says:
Various cleanups and preparation to the ice driver code for supporting
SR-IOV live migration.
The logic for unpacking Rx queue context data is added. This is the inverse
of the existing packing logic. Thanks to <linux/packing.h> this is trivial
to add.
Code to enable both reading and writing the Tx queue context for a queue
over a shared hardware register interface is added. Thanks to ice_adapter,
this is locked across all PFs that need to use it, preventing concurrency
issues with multiple PFs.
The RSS hash configuration requested by a VF is cached within the VF
structure. This will be used to track and restore the same configuration
during migration load.
ice_sriov_set_msix_vec_count() is updated to use pci_iov_vf_id() instead of
open-coding a worse equivalent, and checks to avoid rebuilding MSI-X if the
current request is for the existing amount of vectors.
A new ice_get_vf_by_dev() helper function is added to simplify accessing a
VF from its PCI device structure. This will be used more heavily within the
live migration code itself.
* '100GbE' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tnguy/next-queue:
ice: introduce ice_get_vf_by_dev() wrapper
ice: avoid rebuilding if MSI-X vector count is unchanged

The code had some rather odd control flow inherited from when it was
shared with siena and ef10 before this driver was split out.
Simplify that for easier reading.
Also add a comment explaining why we return the values we do, since
some Falcon documents and datasheets confusingly mention the part
supporting 4-tuple UDP hashing.
(I couldn't find any record of exactly what was "broken" about the
original Falcon A hash, I'm just trusting that falcon_init_rx_cfg()
had a good reason for not using it.)

netem_enqueue's duplication prevention logic breaks when a netem
resides in a qdisc tree with other netems - this can lead to a
soft lockup and OOM loop in netem_dequeue, as seen in [1].
Ensure that a duplicating netem cannot exist in a tree with other
netems.
Previous approaches suggested in discussions in chronological order:
1) Track duplication status or ttl in the sk_buff struct. Considered
too specific a use case to extend such a struct, though this would
be a resilient fix and address other previous and potential future
DOS bugs like the one described in loopy fun [2].
2) Restrict netem_enqueue recursion depth like in act_mirred with a
per cpu variable. However, netem_dequeue can call enqueue on its
child, and the depth restriction could be bypassed if the child is a
netem.
3) Use the same approach as in 2, but add metadata in netem_skb_cb
to handle the netem_dequeue case and track a packet's involvement
in duplication. This is an overly complex approach, and Jamal
notes that the skb cb can be overwritten to circumvent this
safeguard.
4) Prevent the addition of a netem to a qdisc tree if its ancestral
path contains a netem. However, filters and actions can cause a
packet to change paths when re-enqueued to the root from netem
duplication, leading us to the current solution: prevent a
duplicating netem from inhabiting the same tree as other netems.
