Subject: [net-next PATCH 06/11] octeontx2-pf: Sort the allocated MCAM entry indices

From: Sunil Goutham <sgoutham@...vell.com>

Per single mailbox request a maximum of 256 MCAM entries
can be allocated. If more than 256 are being allocated, then
the mcam indices in the final list could get jumbled. Hence
sort the indices.
