This patch adds support for adding and deleting ethtool ntuple filters. The filters for ether, ipv4, ipv6, tcp, udp and sctp are supported. The mask is also supported. The supported actions are drop and direct to a queue. Additionally we support FLOW_EXT field vlan_tci and FLOW_MAC_EXT. The NIX PF will allocate total 32 MCAM entries for the use of ethtool ntuple filters. The Administrative Function(AF) will install/delete the MCAM rules when NIX PF sends mailbox message to install/delete the ntuple filters. Ethtool ntuple filters support is restricted to PFs as of now and PF can install ntuple filters to direct the traffic to its VFs. Hence added a separate callback for VFs to get/set RSS configuration.

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.
