Adds the Backward Congestion Notification Address (BCNA) attribute to the
Backward Congestion Notification (BCN) interface for Data Center Bridging
(DCB), which was missing. Receive the BCNA attribute in the ixgbe driver.
The BCNA attribute is for a switch to inform the endstation about the physical
port identification in order to support BCN on aggregated links.Signed-off-by: Don Skidmore

Data Center Bridging (DCB) had no way to know if setstate had failed in the
driver. This patch enables dcb netlink code to handle the status for the DCB
setstate interface. Likewise it allows the driver to return a failed status
if MSI-X isn't enabled.Signed-off-by: Don Skidmore

dcbml_setnumtcs wasn't checking for the presence of the setnumtcs
function. Instead, it was checking for setstate which was a bug.Signed-off-by: Don Skidmore

Since the netlink option for DCB is necessary to actually be useful,
simplified the Kconfig option. In addition, added useful help text for the
Kconfig option.Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher

Adds an interface to configure the Backward Congestion Notification
(BCN) feature. In a BCN capabale network, congestion notifications
from congested points out in the network can cause the end station
limit the rate of a given traffic flow.Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck

Adds a netlink interface for Data Center Bridging (DCB) to get and set
the enable state of the Priority Flow Control (PFC) feature.
Primarily, this is a way to turn off PFC in the driver while DCB
remains enabled.Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck

Adds interface for Data Center Bridging (DCB) to query (and set if
supported) the number of traffic classes currently supported by the
device for the two (DCB) features: priority groups (PG) and priority
flow control (PFC).Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck

This adds support for Data Center Bridging (DCB) features in the ixgbe
driver and adds an rtnetlink interface for configuring DCB to the
kernel. The DCB feature support included are Priority Grouping (PG) -
which allows bandwidth guarantees to be allocated to groups to traffic
based on the 802.1q priority, and Priority Based Flow Control (PFC) -
which introduces a new MAC control PAUSE frame which works at
granularity of the 802.1p priority instead of the link (IEEE 802.3x).Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck
