Hi,
  This patchset adds support for selftests in the devlink framework.
  It adds a callback .selftests_check and .selftests_run in devlink_ops.
  User can add test(s) suite which is subsequently passed to the driver 
  and driver can opt for running particular tests based on its capabilities.

  Patchset adds a flash based test for the bnxt_en driver.

  Suggested commands at user level would be as below:

changes from:
v7->v8:
   Some nits requested by jiri@nvidia.com in v7.

v6->v7:
  1) Changed the macros/enums name as suggested by kuba@kernel.org.
  2) Rebase with latest net-next. Dumpit impacted due to recent patches
     by jiri@nvidia.com.
  net: devlink: make sure that devlink_try_get() works with valid pointer during xarray iteration
  net: devlink: move net check into devlinks_xa_for_each_registered_get()

v5->v6:
  Addressed change in .rst file only suggested by jiri@nvidia.com in patch v5.
   
v4->v5:
  Addressed the changes requested by jiri@nvidia.com in patch v4.

v3->v4:
  Addressed the changes requested by kuba@kernel.org in patch v3.

v2->v3:
   1)
   After discussions with jiri@nvidia.com, passing a testmask from
   user to kernel is removed and a flag based arguments are adopted.
   This way we can have more than 32/64 selftests defined in the
   kernel.
   Below is the format from user to kernel and vice-versa.
   
   Kernel to user for show command . Users can know what all tests are
   supported by the driver. A return from kernel to user if driver
   supports TEST1, TEST4, and TEST7.
	______
	|NEST |
	|_____ |TEST1|TEST4|TEST7|...


    User to kernel to execute test: If user wants to execute test4, test8,
	test1...
	______
	|NEST |
	|_____ |TEST4|TEST8|TEST1|...

	After executing the tests kernel return to user.
	|NEST |
	|_____ | NEST|       |NEST|       |NEST|
	        TEST4,RES4   TEST8,RES8   TEST1, RES1
    
    2) Added dumpit in devlink for list/show command.

v1->v2:
  Addressed the changes requested by kuba@kernel.org in patch v1.
  Fixed the style issues. 


Thanks,
Vikas
