David S. Miller 1cf814a0dc Merge branch 'net-ethernet-ti-ale-add-static-configuration'
Grygorii Strashko says:

====================
net: ethernet: ti: ale: add static configuration

As existing, as newly introduced CPSW ALE versions have differences in
supported features and ALE table formats. Especially it's actual for the
recent AM65x/J721E/J7200 and future AM64x SoCs, which supports more
features like: auto-aging, classifiers, Link aggregation, additional HW
filtering, etc.

The existing ALE configuration interface is not practical in terms of
adding new features and requires consumers to program a lot static
parameters. And any attempt to add new features will case endless adding
and maintaining different combination of flags and options. Because CPSW
ALE configuration is static and fixed for SoC (or set of SoC), It is
reasonable to add support for static ALE configurations inside ALE module.

This series introduces static ALE configuration table for different ALE
variants and provides option for consumers to select required ALE
configuration by providing ALE const char *dev_id identifier (Patch 2).
And all existing driver have been switched to use new approach (Patches 3-6).

After this ALE HW auto-ageing feature can be enabled for AM65x CPSW ALE
variant (Patch 7).

Finally, Patches 8-9 introduces tables to describe the ALE VLAN entries
fields as the ALE VLAN entries are too much differ between different TI
CPSW ALE versions. So, handling them using flags, defines and get/set
functions are became over-complicated.

Patch 1 - is preparation patch

Changes in v3:
- fixed comment for Patch 2

Changes in v2:
- fixed sparse warnings

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
