Merge branch 'mlxsw-fdb-learning-offload'
Jiri Pirko says:
====================
mlxsw: Offload FDB learning configuration
Ido says:
This patchset addresses two long standing issues in the mlxsw driver
concerning FDB learning.
Patch 1 limits the number of FDB records processed by the driver in a
single session. This is useful in situations in which many new records
need to be processed, thereby causing the RTNL mutex to be held for
long periods of time.
Patches 2-6 offload the learning configuration (on / off) of bridge
ports to the device instead of having the driver decide whether a
record needs to be learned or not.
The last patch is fallout and removes configuration no longer necessary
after the first patches are applied.
