Ido Schimmel f9f54392d2 devlink: Add packet trap group parameters support
Packet trap groups are used to aggregate logically related packet traps.
Currently, these groups allow user space to batch operations such as
setting the trap action of all member traps.

In order to prevent the CPU from being overwhelmed by too many trapped
packets, it is desirable to bind a packet trap policer to these groups.
For example, to limit all the packets that encountered an exception
during routing to 10Kpps.

Allow device drivers to bind default packet trap policers to packet trap
groups when the latter are registered with devlink.

The next patch will enable user space to change this default binding.

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.
