Subject: [PATCH net 4/4] selftests: drv-net: rss_ctx: test RSS contexts persist after ifdown/up

From: Pavan Chebbi <pavan.chebbi@...adcom.com>

Add tests to verify
1. that RSS contexts persist across interface down/up
2. that RSS contexts persist across interface down/up along
with their associated Ntuple fitlers

Testing on bnxt_en:

 TAP version 13
 1..1
 # timeout set to 0
 # selftests: drivers/net/hw: rss_ctx.py
 # TAP version 13
 # 1..2
 # ok 1 rss_ctx.test_rss_context_persist_ifupdown
 # ok 2 rss_ctx.test_rss_context_ntuple_persist_ifupdown
 # # Totals: pass:2 fail:0 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:0 error:0
 ok 1 selftests: drivers/net/hw: rss_ctx.py
