Parav Pandit b28d8f0c25 devlink: Correct VIRTUAL port to not have phys_port attributes
Physical port name, port number attributes do not belong to virtual port
flavour. When VF or SF virtual ports are registered they incorrectly
append "np0" string in the netdevice name of the VF/SF.

Before this fix, VF netdevice name were ens2f0np0v0, ens2f0np0v1 for VF
0 and 1 respectively.

After the fix, they are ens2f0v0, ens2f0v1.

With this fix, reading /sys/class/net/ens2f0v0/phys_port_name returns
-EOPNOTSUPP.

Also devlink port show example for 2 VFs on one PF to ensure that any
physical port attributes are not exposed.

$ devlink port show
pci/0000:06:00.0/65535: type eth netdev ens2f0np0 flavour physical port 0 splittable false
pci/0000:06:00.3/196608: type eth netdev ens2f0v0 flavour virtual splittable false
pci/0000:06:00.4/262144: type eth netdev ens2f0v1 flavour virtual splittable false

This change introduces a netdevice name change on systemd/udev
version 245 and higher which honors phys_port_name sysfs file for
generation of netdevice name.

This also aligns to phys_port_name usage which is limited to switchdev
ports as described in [1].

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.
