This patch adds a new function ice_pf_dcb_cfg (and related helpers) which applies the DCB configuration obtained from the firmware. As part of this, VSIs/netdevs are updated with traffic class information. This patch requires a bit of a refactor of existing code. 1. For a MIB change event, the associated VSI is closed and brought up again. The gap between closing and opening the VSI can cause a race condition. Fix this by grabbing the rtnl_lock prior to closing the VSI and then only free it after re-opening the VSI during a MIB change event. 2. ice_sched_query_elem is used in ice_sched.c and with this patch, in ice_dcb.c as well. However, ice_dcb.c is not built when CONFIG_DCB is unset. This results in namespace warnings (ice_sched.o: Externally defined symbols with no external references) when CONFIG_DCB is unset. To avoid this move ice_sched_query_elem from ice_sched.c to ice_common.c.

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.
