Getting the pf_id from the function number was a good place to start,
but when the PF was setup in passthru mode, the PCI bus/device/function
was virtualized and the number in the VM is different from the number in
the bare metal. This caused HW configuration issues when the wrong pf_id
was used to set up the HMC and other structures. The PF_FUNC_RID register
has the real bus/device/function information as configured by the BIOS,
so use that for a better number. This works in NPAR mode as well.

Also, we now have to explicitly enable Loopback mode otherwise we fail

When multiple VFs attempt to initialize simultaneously, the firmware may
delay or drop messages. Make the init code more adept at handling these
situations by a) reinitializing the admin queue if the firmware fails to
process a request, and b) resending a request if the PF doesn't answer.
Once the request has been sent again, the PF might end up getting both
requests and send the configuration information to the driver twice.
This will cause the VF to complain about receiving an unexpected message
from the PF. Since this is not fatal, reduce the warning level of the
log messages that are generated in response to this event.

Resolve an issue related to images with multiple PFs per physical
port. We cannot fully support 1588 PTP features, since only one port
should control (ie: write) the registers at a time. Doing so can cause
interference of functionality.
It may be possible to partially implement the API for only those
features without side effects. However, this at minimum means non
controlling PFs lose Tx timestamps, frequency atunement, and possibly
SYSTIME adjustment. There may be further impact I did not discover.
Since the API in the kernel expects these features to work, it is
simpler and less dangerous to just disable PTP features on all PFs not
identified as the controlling PF in PRTTSYN_CTL0.PF_ID.
This change also removes the warning printed when hwtstaml IOCTL is
called on the wrong PF. This is actually meaningless now, since only one
PF per port will support it. In addition, the ethtool get_ts_info IOCTL
was updated so that only the controlling port will even indicate support
(so as not to confuse users).
The overall downside is complete loss of functionality on non
controlling PF, vs the possible gain of partial support. The biggest
factor for choosing this approach is simplicity and ensuring that the
main PF will work. There could easily be other portions of the 1588
logic with side effects I am not aware, and the reduced functionality
that might be made available is significantly less useful. In addition,
the API does not allow for proper indication of why particular features
are not supported. These reasons are enough to decide for the simpler
approach to resolving this issue.

allocated page.
It also cleans up how we clear the descriptor status bits. Previously they
were zeroed as a part of clearing the hdr_addr. However the hdr_addr is a
64 bit field and 64 bit writes can be a bit more expensive on on 32 bit
systems. Since we are no longer using the header split feature the upper
32 bits of the address no longer need to be cleared. As a result we can
just clear the status bits and leave the length and VLAN fields as-is which
should provide more information in debugging.

Add L2 bridge offloading support to rocker driver. Here, the Linux bridge
driver is used to collect swdev ports into a tagged (or untagged) VLAN
bridge. The switchdev will offload from the bridge driver the following L2
bridging functions:
- Learning of neighbor MAC addresses on VLAN X Learned mac/vlan is
installed in bridge FDB. (And removed when device unlearns mac/vlan).
Learning must be turned off on each bridge port to disable the feature in
the bridge driver.
- Flooding of multicast/broadcast and unknown unicast pkts to (STP)
active ports in bridge. The bridge driver is unaware of the flooding happening
at the device level. Flooding must be turned off on each bridge port to
disable the feature on the bridge driver.
- STP port state is pushed down to driver/device. The bridge still processes
STP BDPUs and maintains port STP state (for all VLANs in bridge), but
the driver/device must be notified of port STP state change to program
the device.
Multiple (VLAN) bridges are supported. The device (implemented per
the OF-DPA spec) must use a portion of the VLAN namespace for
internal VLANs. Right now, the upper 255 VLANs (0xf00 to 0xffe) are
used as internal VLAN IDs for untagged traffic and are not available
as port VLANs.
The driver uses the following interfaces:
1. To track VLAN add/del on ports in bridge:
.ndo_vlan_rx_add_vid
.ndo_vlan_rx_kill_vid
2. To track port add/del membership in bridge:
NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER netdevice notifier
3. To catch static FDB entries installed on bridge/vlan by user using netlink:
.ndo_fdb_add
.ndo_fdb_del
4. To be notified on port STP state change:
.ndo_switch_port_stp_update
5. To notify bridge driver on learned/forgotten mac/vlans on bridge port:
br_fdb_external_learn_add

The rocker driver maintains 4 hash tables: flows, groups, FDB, and VLANs.
Flow and group tables track the entries installed to OF-DPA tables,
per the OF-DPA spec. See OF-DPA spec for full description of fields
in each flow and group table. New table entries are pushed to the
device with ADD cmd. Updated entries are pushed to the device with
MOD cmd. For flow table entries, a crc32 key is made from fields of
the particular field. For group table entries, the group_id is used
as the key.
The FDB table tracks fdb entries learned by the device or manually
pushed to the bridge by the user. A crc32 key is made from the
port/mac/vlan tuple for the fdb entry.
The VLAN table tracks the ifindex-to-internal-vlan mapping for
untagged pkts. On ingress, an untagged pkt is inserted with an
internal VLAN ID based on the input port's current internal VLAN ID.
The input port's internal VLAN will either be referenced by the port's
ifindex, if not bridged, or the containing bridge's ifindex, if
bridged. Since the ifindex space isn't within a fixed range, uses a
hash table (with ifindex as key) to track internal VLAN ID for a given
ifindex. The internal VLAN ID range is fixed and currently uses the
upper 255 VLAN IDs, starting at 0xf00.
