devlink: Allow setting tx rate for devlink rate leaf objects

Browse source

Implement support for DEVLINK_CMD_RATE_SET command with new attributes
DEVLINK_ATTR_RATE_TX_{SHARE|MAX} that are used to set devlink rate
shared/max tx rate values. Extend devlink ops with new callbacks
rate_leaf_tx_{share|max}_set() to allow supporting drivers to implement
rate control through devlink.

New attributes are optional. Driver implementations are allowed to
support either or both of them.

Shared rate example:

$ devlink port function rate set netdevsim/netdevsim10/0 tx_share 10mbit

$ devlink port function rate show netdevsim/netdevsim10/0
netdevsim/netdevsim10/0: type leaf tx_share 10mbit

Max rate example:

$ devlink port function rate set netdevsim/netdevsim10/0 tx_max 100mbit

$ devlink port function rate show netdevsim/netdevsim10/0
netdevsim/netdevsim10/0: type leaf tx_max 100mbit
