net/sfc/base: report support for Tx checksum op descriptors
FreeBSD driver needs a patch to provide a means for packets
which do not need checksum offload but have flow ID set
to avoid hitting only the first Tx queue (which has been used
for packets not needing checksum offload).
This should be possible on Huntington, Medford or Medford2 chips
since these support toggling checksum offload on any given queue
dynamically by means of pushing option descriptors.
The patch for FreeBSD driver will then need a means to figure out
whether the feature can be used, and testing adapter family might
not be a good solution.

for checksum option descriptors. The new feature bits may have
more users in future, apart from the mentioned FreeBSD patch.

net/mlx5: fix VXLAN port registration race condition
E-Switch VXLAN tunneling rules require virtual VXLAN network
devices be created. These devices are managed by MLX5 PMD and
created/deleted dynamically.
Kernel creates the VXLAN devices and registers VXLAN UDP ports
to be hardware offloaded within the NIC kernel drivers. The
registration process is being performed into context of working
kernel thread and the race conditions might happen.
The VXLAN device is created and success code is returned to calling
application, but the UDP port registration process is not completed
yet and the next applied rule might be rejected by the driver with
ENOSUP code. This patch adds some timeout for new created devices,
allowing port registration process to be completed. The waiting
is performed once after device been created and first rule is being
applied.
When tc rule is created via Netlink message application
can provide the unique rule value which can be accepted
by the kernel. Than rule is managed with this assigned
handle. It was found that kernel can reject the proposed
handle and assign its own handle value, the rule control
is lost, because application uses its initially prorosed
rule handle and knows nothing about handle been repleced.
The kernel can assign handle automatically, the application
can get the assigned handle value by specifying NLM_F_ECHO
flag in Netlink message when rule is being created. The
kernel sends back the full descriptor of rule and handle
can be retrieved from and stored by application for further
rule management.
