A GID entry consists of GID, vlan, netdev and smac. Extend GID duplicate
check comparisons to consider vlan_id as well to support IPv6 VLAN based
link local addresses. Introduce a new structure (bnxt_qplib_gid_info) to
hold gid and vlan_id information.
The issue is discussed in the following thread

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.
