ice: Account for port VLAN in VF max packet size calculation

Browse source

Currently if an AVF driver doesn't account for the possibility of a
port VLAN when determining its max packet size then packets at MTU will
be dropped. It is not the VF driver's responsibility to account for a
port VLAN so fix this. To fix this, do the following:

1. Add a function that determines the max packet size a VF is allowed by
   using the port's max packet size and whether the VF is in a port
   VLAN. If a port VLAN is configured then a VF's max packet size will
   always be the port's max packet size minus VLAN_HLEN. Otherwise it
   will be the port's max packet size.

2. Use this function to verify the max packet size from the VF.

3. If there is a port VLAN configured then add 4 bytes (VLAN_HLEN) to
   the VF's max packet size configuration.

Also, the VIRTCHNL_OP_GET_VF_RESOURCES message provides the capability
to communicate a VF's max packet size. Use the new function for this
purpose.
