Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 0/4] ice: switch: debloat packet templates code

This hunts down several places around packet templates/dummies for
switch rules which are either repetitive, fragile or just not
really readable code.
It's a common need to add new packet templates and to review such
changes as well, try to simplify both with the help of a pair
macros and aliases.

bloat-o-meter is happy about that (built w/ LLVM 13):

add/remove: 0/1 grow/shrink: 2/0 up/down: 148/-202 (-54)
Function                                     old     new   delta
ice_add_adv_rule                            2383    2529    +146
ice_fill_adv_dummy_packet                    289     291      +2
ice_adv_add_update_vsi_list                  202       -    -202
Total: Before=395813, After=395759, chg -0.01%

Diffstat also looks nice, and adding new packet templates now takes
less lines.

We'll probably come out with dynamic template crafting in a while,
but for now let's improve what we have currently.

Note: this will conflict with [1] going through net-next,
a followup will be sent once accepted.

>From v1 ([0]):
 - rebase on top of the latest next-queue (to fix #3 not applying);
 - adjust the kdoc accordingly to the function proto changes in #3;
 - no functional changes.

Alexander Lobakin (4):
  ice: switch: add and use u16[] aliases to ice_adv_lkup_elem::{h,m}_u
  ice: switch: unobscurify bitops loop in ice_fill_adv_dummy_packet()
  ice: switch: use a struct to pass packet template params
  ice: switch: use convenience macros to declare dummy pkt templates
