This patch adds support for Connect-X MACsec offload Tx SA commands: add, update and delete. In Connect-X MACsec, a Security Association (SA) is added or deleted via allocating a HW context of an encryption/decryption key and a HW context of a matching SA (MACsec object). When new SA is added: - Use a separate crypto key HW context. - Create a separate MACsec context in HW to include the SA properties. Introduce a new compilation flag MLX5_EN_MACSEC for it. Follow-up patches will implement the Tx steering.

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.
