rpl is passed as a pointer to ethtool_cmis_module_poll(), so the correct
size of rpl is sizeof(*rpl) which should be just 1 byte. Using the
pointer size instead can cause stack corruption:

The 'read_write_len_ext' field in 'struct ethtool_cmis_cdb_cmd_args'
stores the maximum number of bytes that can be read from or written to
the Local Payload (LPL) page in a single multi-byte access.
Cited commit started overwriting this field with the maximum number of
bytes that can be read from or written to the Extended Payload (LPL)
pages in a single multi-byte access. Transceiver modules that support
auto paging can advertise a number larger than 255 which is problematic
as 'read_write_len_ext' is a 'u8', resulting in the number getting
truncated and firmware flashing failing [1].
Fix by ignoring the maximum EPL access size as the kernel does not
currently support auto paging (even if the transceiver module does) and
will not try to read / write more than 128 bytes at once.

In the CMIS specification for pluggable modules, LPL (Local Payload) and
EPL (Extended Payload) are two types of data payloads used for managing
various functions and features of the module.
EPL payloads are used for more complex and extensive management
functions that require a larger amount of data, so writing firmware
blocks using EPL is much more efficient.
Currently, only LPL payload is supported for writing firmware blocks to
the module.
Add support for writing firmware block using EPL payload, both to
support modules that supports only EPL write mechanism, and to optimize
the flashing process of modules that support LPL and EPL.

Add EPL related parameters to the function ethtool_cmis_cdb_compose_args()
and add a specific function for calculating the maximum allowable length
extension for EPL. Both will be used in the next patch to add support for
writing firmware blocks using EPL.

During the firmware flashing process, notifications are sent to user
space to provide progress updates. When an error occurs, an error
message is sent to indicate what went wrong.
In some cases, appropriate error messages are missing.
Add relevant error messages where applicable, allowing user space to better
understand the issues encountered.

CDB (Command Data Block Message Communication) reads and writes are
performed on memory map pages 9Fh-AFh according to the CMIS standard,
section 8.20 of revision 5.2.
Page 9Fh is used to specify the CDB command to be executed and also
provides an area for a local payload (LPL).
According to the CMIS standard, the firmware update process is done using
a CDB commands sequence that will be implemented in the next patch.
The kernel interface that will implement the firmware update using CDB
command will include 2 layers that will be added under ethtool:
* The upper layer that will be triggered from the module layer, is
cmis_fw_update.
* The lower one is cmis_cdb.
In the future there might be more operations to implement using CDB
commands. Therefore, the idea is to keep the CDB interface clean and the
cmis_fw_update specific to the CDB commands handling it.
These two layers will communicate using the API the consists of three
functions:
- struct ethtool_cmis_cdb *
ethtool_cmis_cdb_init(struct net_device *dev,
struct ethtool_module_fw_flash_params *params);
- void ethtool_cmis_cdb_fini(struct ethtool_cmis_cdb *cdb);
- int ethtool_cmis_cdb_execute_cmd(struct net_device *dev,
struct ethtool_cmis_cdb_cmd_args *args);
Add the CDB layer to support initializing, finishing and executing CDB
commands:
* The initialization process will include creating of an ethtool_cmis_cdb
instance, querying the module CDB support, entering and validating the
password from user space (CMD 0x0000) and querying the module features
(CMD 0x0040).
* The finishing API will simply free the ethtool_cmis_cdb instance.
* The executing process will write the CDB command to EEPROM using
set_module_eeprom_by_page() that was presented earlier, and will
process the reply from EEPROM.
