mlx5-updates-2021-04-19

Browse source 
This patchset provides some updates to mlx5e and mlx5 SW steering drivers:
 
 1) Tariq and Vladyslav they both provide some trivial update to mlx5e netdev.
 
 The next 12 patches in the patchset are focused toward mlx5 SW steering:
 2) 3 trivial cleanup patches
 
 3) Dynamic Flex parser support:
    Flex parser is a HW parser that can support protocols that are not
     natively supported by the HCA, such as Geneve (TLV options) and GTP-U.
     There are 8 such parsers, and each of them can be assigned to parse a
     specific set of protocols.
 
 4) Enable matching on Geneve TLV options
 
 5) Use Flex parser for MPLS over UDP/GRE
 
 6) Enable matching on tunnel GTP-U and GTP-U first extension
    header using
 
 7) Improved QoS for SW steering internal QPair for a better insertion rate
