mlx5-updates-2017-06-11

This series provides updates to mlx5 header rewrite feature, from Or Gerlitz.
and three more small updates From maor and eran.

-------
Or says:

Packets belonging to flows which are different by matching may still need
to go through the same header re-writes (e.g set the current routing hop
MACs and issue TTL decrement).  To minimize the number of modify header
IDs, we add a cache for header re-write IDs which is keyed by the binary
chain of modify header actions.

The caching is supported for both eswitch and NIC use-cases, where the
actual conversion of the code to use caching comes in separate patches,
one per use-case.

Using a per field mask field, the TC pedit action supports modifying
partial fields. The last patch enables offloading that.
-------

>From Maor, update flow table commands layout to the latest HW spec.
>From Eran, ethtool connector type reporting updates.

Thanks,
Saeed.
