Not all SFPs implement the registers containing sensor limits and
alarms. Luckily, there is a bit indicating if they are implemented or
not. Add checking for this bit, when deciding if the hwmon attributes
should be visible.

Correct the formula for calculating the RQ page remainder,
which should be in byte granularity. The result will be
non-zero only for RQs smaller than PAGE_SIZE, as an RQ size
is a power of 2.
Divide this by the SQ stride (MLX5_SEND_WQE_BB) to get the
SQ offset in strides granularity.

There are only 128 entries in vf vlan table, if user has added
more than 128 vlan, fw will ignore it and disable the vf vlan
table. So when user deletes the vlan entry that has not been
set to vf vlan table, fw will return not found result and driver
treat that as error, which will cause vlan delete failed problem.
This patch fixes it by returning ok when fw returns not found
result.

Currently, the driver adjusts the bp->hw_resc.max_cp_rings by the number
of MSIX vectors used by RDMA. There is one code path in open that needs
to check the true max_cp_rings including any used by RDMA. This code
is now checking for the reduced max_cp_rings which will fail when the
number of cp rings is very small.
To fix this in a clean way, we don't adjust max_cp_rings anymore.
Instead, we add a helper bnxt_get_max_func_cp_rings_for_en() to get the
reduced max_cp_rings when appropriate.

When the driver detects that resources have changed during open, it
should reset the rx and tx rings to 0. This will properly setup the
init sequence to initialize the default rings again. We also need
to signal the RDMA driver to stop and clear its interrupts. We then
call the RoCE driver to restart if a new set of default rings is
successfully reserved.

In the loop of mvneta_tx_done_gbe(), we call the smp_processor_id()
each time, move the call out of the loop to optimize the code a bit.
Before the patch, the loop looks like(under arm64):
ldr x1, [x29,#120]
...
ldr w24, [x1,#36]
...
bl 0 <_raw_spin_lock>
str w24, [x27,#132]
...
After the patch, the loop looks like(under arm64):
...
bl 0 <_raw_spin_lock>
str w23, [x28,#132]
...
where w23 is loaded so be ready before the loop.
>From another side, mvneta_tx_done_gbe() is called from mvneta_poll()
which is in non-preemptible context, so it's safe to call the
smp_processor_id() function once.

The cpsw-phy-sel device is not a child of the cpsw interconnect target
module. It lives in the system control module.
Let's fix this issue by trying to use cpsw-phy-sel phandle first if it
exists and if not fall back to current usage of trying to find the
cpsw-phy-sel child. That way the phy sel driver can be a child of the
system control module where it belongs in the device tree.
Without this fix, we cannot have a proper interconnect target module
hierarchy in device tree for things like genpd.
Note that deferred probe is mostly not supported by cpsw and this patch
does not attempt to fix that. In case deferred probe support is needed,
this could be added to cpsw_slave_open() and phy_connect() so they start
handling and returning errors.
For documenting it, looks like the cpsw-phy-sel is used for all cpsw device
tree nodes. It's missing the related binding documentation, so let's also
update the binding documentation accordingly.
