net/mlx5: E-Switch, Add ovs internal port mapping to metadata support
Adding infrastructure to map ovs internal port device to vport match metadata to support offload of rules with internal port as the filter device or as the destination device. The infrastructure allows adding and removing internal port device to an eswitch database and getting a unique vport metadata value to be placed and match on in reg_c0 when offloading rules that are coming from or going to an internal port. The new int port metadata can be written to the source port register in HW to indicate that current source port of the packet is the internal port and not one of the actual HW vports (uplink or VF). Using this method, it is possible to offload TC rules with an OVS internal port as their destination port (overwriting the src vport register) or as the filter port (matching on the value of the src vport register and making sure it matches to the internal port's value). There is also a need to handle a miss case where the packet's src port value was changed in HW to an internal port but a following rule which matches on this new src port value wasn't found in HW. In such case, the packet will be forwarded to the driver with metadata which allows driver to restore the info of the internal port's netdevice. Once this info is restored, the uplink driver can forward the packet to the relevant netdevice in SW.
