mlx5e-updates-2018-12-14 (VF Lag)

Browse source 
From Aviv Heller,
 
 Subsequent patches introduce VF LAG, which provdies load-balancing and
 high-availability capabilities for VFs associated with different
 physical ports of the same Connect-X card.
 
 This series consists of the following:
  - mlx5 devcom, driver infrastructure that facilitates operations that involve
    both core devices (physical functions) of the same card, to synchronize and
    communicate between two driver instances of the same card.
  - Infrastructure for TC rule duplication.
  - Changes to LAG logic to enable its use when SR-IOV is enabled
  - PFs in switchdev mode is the only mode currently supported.
