====================
mlx5-updates-2017-24-01

The first seven patches from Or Gerlitz in this series further enhances
the mlx5 SRIOV switchdev mode to support offloading IPv6 tunnels using the
TC tunnel key set (encap) and unset (decap) actions.

========================
As part of doing this change, few cleanups are done in the IPv4 code,
later we move to use the full tunnel key info provided to the driver as
the key for our internal hashing which is used to identify cases where
the same tunnel is used for encapsulating multiple flows. As done in the
IPv4 case, the control path for offloading IPv6 tunnels uses route/neigh
lookups and construction of the IPv6 tunnel headers on the encap path and
matching on the outer hears in the decap path.

The last patch of the series enlarges the HW FDB size for the switchdev mode,
so it has now room to contain offloaded flows as many...
