Subject: [PATCH v6 net-next 0/9] ethtool: track custom RSS contexts in the core

From: Edward Cree <ecree.xilinx@...il.com>

Make the core responsible for tracking the set of custom RSS contexts,
 their IDs, indirection tables, hash keys, and hash functions; this
 lets us get rid of duplicative code in drivers, and will allow us to
 support netlink dumps later.

This series only moves the sfc EF10 & EF100 driver over to the new API;
 other drivers (mvpp2, octeontx2, mlx5, sfc/siena) can be converted afterwards
 and the legacy API removed.

Changes in v6:
* fixed kdoc for renamed fields
* always call setter in netdev_rss_contexts_free()
* document that 'create' method should populate ctx for driver-chosen defaults
* on 'ethtool -x', get info from the tracking xarray rather than calling the
  driver's get_rxfh method.  This makes it easier to test that the tracking is
  correct, in the absence of future code like netlink dumps to use it.

Changes in v5:
* Rebased on top of Ahmed Zaki's struct ethtool_rxfh_param API
* Moved rxfh_max_context_id to the ethtool ops struct

Changes in v4:
* replaced IDR with XArray
* grouped initialisations together in patch 6
* dropped RFC tags

Changes in v3:
* Added WangXun ngbe to patch #1, not sure if they've added WoL support since
  v2 or if I just missed it last time around
* Re-ordered struct ethtool_netdev_state to avoid hole (Andrew Lunn)
* Fixed some resource leaks in error handling paths (kuba)
* Added maintainers of other context-using drivers to CC

Edward Cree (9):
  net: move ethtool-related netdev state into its own struct
  net: ethtool: attach an XArray of custom RSS contexts to a netdevice
  net: ethtool: record custom RSS contexts in the XArray
  net: ethtool: let the core choose RSS context IDs
  net: ethtool: add an extack parameter to new rxfh_context APIs
  net: ethtool: add a mutex protecting RSS contexts
  sfc: use new rxfh_context API
  net: ethtool: use the tracking array for get_rxfh on custom RSS
    contexts
  sfc: remove get_rxfh_context dead code
