bnxt_en: Add bnxt_en initial port params table and register it

Browse source

Register devlink_port with devlink and create initial port params
table for bnxt_en. The table consists of a generic parameter:

wake_on_lan: Enables Wake on Lan for this port when magic packet
is received with this port's MAC address using ACPI pattern.
If enabled, the controller asserts a wake pin upon reception of
WoL packet.  ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) is
an industry specification for the efficient handling of power
consumption in desktop and mobile computers.

v2->v3:
- Modify bnxt_dl_wol_validate(), to throw error message when user gives
  value other than DEVLINK_PARAM_WAKE_MAGIC ot to disable WOL.
- Use netdev_err() instead of netdev_warn(), when devlink_port_register()
  and devlink_port_params_register() returns error. Also, don't log rc
  in this message.
