This patch adds support for ndo_set_vf_mac, ndo_set_vf_vlan and ndo_get_vf_config handlers. The traffic redirection based on the VF mac address or vlan id is done by installing MCAM rules. Reserved RX_VTAG_TYPE7 in each NIXLF for VF VLAN which strips the VLAN tag from ingress VLAN traffic. The NIX PF allocates two MCAM entries for VF VLAN feature, one used for ingress VTAG strip and another entry for egress VTAG insertion. This patch also updates the MAC address in PF installed VF VLAN rule upon receiving nix_lf_start_rx mbox request for VF since Administrative Function driver will assign a valid MAC addr in nix_lf_start_rx function.

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.
