Parav Pandit f13a5ad881 devlink: Add new "enable_eth" generic device param
Add new device generic parameter to enable/disable creation of
Ethernet auxiliary device and associated device functionality
in the devlink instance.

User who prefers to disable such functionality can disable it using below
example.

$ devlink dev param set pci/0000:06:00.0 \
              name enable_eth value false cmode driverinit
$ devlink dev reload pci/0000:06:00.0

At this point devlink instance do not create auxiliary device for the
Ethernet functionality.

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.
