Vlad Buslov 2221d954d9 net/mlx5e: Refactor neigh update infrastructure
Following patches in series implements route update which can cause encap
entries to migrate between routing devices. Consecutively, their parent
nhe's need to be also transferable between devices instead of having neigh
device as a part of their immutable key. Move neigh device from struct
mlx5_neigh to struct mlx5e_neigh_hash_entry and check that nhe and neigh
devices are the same in workqueue neigh update handler.

Save neigh net_device that can change dynamically in dedicated nhe->dev
field. With FIB event handler that is implemented in following patches
changing nhe->dev, NETEVENT_DELAY_PROBE_TIME_UPDATE handler can
concurrently access the nhe entry when traversing neigh list under rcu read
lock. Processing stale values in that handler doesn't change the handler
logic, so just wrap all accesses to the dev pointer in {WRITE|READ}_ONCE()
helpers.

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.
