Add support for traffic mirroring, where the hardware reads the buffer from the instance memory directly. Traffic Mirroring needs access to the rx buffers in the instance. To have this access, this patch: 1. Changes the code to map and unmap the rx buffers bidirectionally. 2. Enables the relevant bit in driver_supported_features to indicate to the FW that this driver supports traffic mirroring. Rx completion is not generated until mirroring is done to avoid the situation where the driver changes the buffer before it is mirrored.

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.
