Roi Dayan 04de7dda73 net/mlx5e: Infrastructure for duplicated offloading of TC flows
Under uplink LAG or multipath schemes, traffic that matches one flow
might arrive on both uplink ports and transmitted through both
as part of supporting aggregation and high-availability.

To cope with the fact that the SW model might use logical SW port
(e.g uplink team or bond) but we have two HW ports with e-switch on
each, there are cases where in order to offload a SW TC rule we
need to duplicate it to two HW flows.

Since each HW rule has its own counter we also aggregate the counter
of both rules when a flow stats query is executed from user-space.

Introduce the changes for the different elements (add/delete/stats),
currently nothing is duplicated.

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.
