Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/4] HTB offload

This series adds support for HTB offload to the HTB qdisc, and adds
usage to mlx5 driver.

The previous RFCs are available at [1], [2].

The feature is intended to solve the performance bottleneck caused by
the single lock of the HTB qdisc, which prevents it from scaling well.
The HTB algorithm itself is offloaded to the device, eliminating the
need to take the root lock of HTB on every packet. Classification part
is done in clsact (still in software) to avoid acquiring the lock, which
imposes a limitation that filters can target only leaf classes.

The speedup on Mellanox ConnectX-6 Dx was 14.2 times in the UDP
multi-stream test, compared to software HTB implementation (more details
in the mlx5 patch).
