Subject: [RFC net-next v2 3/3] devlink: add more failure modes

>> Pending vendors adding the right reporters. <<

Extend the applicability of devlink health reporters
beyond what can be locally remedied. Add failure modes
which require re-flashing the NVM image or HW changes.

The expectation is that driver will call
devlink_health_reporter_state_update() to put hardware
health reporters into bad state.
