Subject: [PATCH net-next V2 0/6] Mellanox 100G mlx5 DCBX CEE and firmware support

Hi Dave,

This series from Huy provides mlx5 DCBX updates to support DCBX CEE
API and DCBX firmware/host modes support.

1st patch ensures the dcbnl_rtnl_ops is published only when the qos capability bits is on.

2nd patch adds the support for CEE interfaces into mlx5 dcbnl_rtnl_ops.

3rd patch refactors ETS query to read ETS configuration directly from firmware rather 
than having a software shadow to it. The existing IEEE interfaces stays the same.

4th patch adds the support for MLX5_REG_DCBX_PARAM and MLX5_REG_DCBX_APP firmware
commands to manipulate mlx5 DCBX mode.

5th patch adds the driver support for the new DCBX firmware.
This ensures the backward compatibility versus the old and new firmware.
With the new DCBX firmware, qos settings can be controlled by either firmware
or software depending on the DCBX mode.

6th patch adds support for module events log.

Changes since V1:
1. Add qos capability check
2. In port module events eqe structure, change rsvd_n to reserved_at_n to be consistent with mlx5_ifc.h
3. Improve commit messages
4. Drop DCBX private flags patch
5. Add patch to check for qos capability bit check before exposing dcb interfaces
6. Replace memset with static array initialization

Thanks,
Saeed.
