Hi, 

This series includes mlx5 updates for both rdma and net-next trees.
In case of no objection it will be applied to mlx5-next branch and later
on will be sent as pull request to rdma and net-next.

1) From Bodong, E-Switch vport cleanups patches.

2) From Jianbo, Vport meta data matching:

Hardware steering has no notion of vport number, and vport is an
abstract concept, so firmware need to translate the source vport
matching to match on the VHCA ID (Virtual HCA ID).

In dual-port RoCE, the dual-port VHCA is able to send also on the
second port on behalf of the affiliated vport, so now we can’t assume
anymore that vport is represented by single VHCA only.

To resolve this issue, we use metadata register as source port
indicator instead.

When a packet enters the eswitch, eswitch ingress traffic passes the
ingress ACL flow tables, where we tag the packets (via the metadata
value, in this case REG_C at index 0) with a unique value which will
act as an alias of the vport. In order to guarantee uniqueness, we use
the eswitch owner vhca id and the vport number as that value.

Usually, the vports are numbered in each eswitch as followed:
    - Physical Function (PF) vport, the number is 0.
    - Virtual Function (VF) vport, starting from 1.
    - Uplink vport, the reserved vport number for it is 0xFFFF.

With the metadata in each packet, we can then do matching on it, in
both fast path and slow path.

For slow path, there is a representor for each vport. Packet that
misses all offloaded rules in FDB, will be forwarded to the eswitch
manager vport. In its NIC RX, it then will be steered to the right
representor. The rules, which decide the destination representor,
previously were matching on source port, will now match metadata
instead.
