Some speeds can be achieved with different number of lanes. For example,
100Gbps can be achieved using two lanes of 50Gbps or four lanes of
25Gbps. This patch set adds a new selector that allows ethtool to
advertise link modes according to their number of lanes and also force a
specific number of lanes when autonegotiation is off.

Advertising all link modes with a speed of 100Gbps that use two lanes:

$ ethtool -s swp1 speed 100000 lanes 2 autoneg on

Forcing a speed of 100Gbps using four lanes:

$ ethtool -s swp1 speed 100000 lanes 4 autoneg off

Patch set overview:

Patch #1 allows user space to configure the desired number of lanes.

Patch #2-#3 adjusts ethtool to dump to user space the number of lanes
currently in use.

Patches #4-#6 add support for lanes configuration in mlxsw.

Patch #7 adds a selftest.

v2:
	* Patch #1: Remove ETHTOOL_LANES defines and simply use a number
	  instead.
	* Patches #2,#6: Pass link mode from driver to ethtool instead
	* of the parameters themselves.
	* Patch #5: Add an actual width field for spectrum-2 link modes
	  in order to set the suitable link mode when lanes parameter is
	  passed.
	* Patch #6: Changed lanes to be unsigned in
	  'struct link_mode_info'.
	* Patch #7: Remove the test for recieving max_width when lanes
	* is not set by user. When not setting lanes, we don't promise
	  anything regarding what number of lanes will be chosen.
