f23f0db360 bridge: switchdev: mrp: Extend MRP API for switchdev for MRP Interconnect
Implement the MRP API for interconnect switchdev. Similar with the other
br_mrp_switchdev function, these function will just eventually call the
switchdev functions: switchdev_port_obj_add/del.

c6676e7d62 bridge: mrp: Add support for role MRA
A node that has the MRA role, it can behave as MRM or MRC.

Initially it starts as MRM and sends MRP_Test frames on both ring ports.
If it detects that there are MRP_Test send by another MRM, then it
checks if these frames have a lower priority than itself. In this case
it would send MRP_Nack frames to notify the other node that it needs to
stop sending MRP_Test frames.
If it receives a MRP_Nack frame then it stops sending MRP_Test frames
and starts to behave as a MRC but it would continue to monitor the
MRP_Test frames send by MRM. If at a point the MRM stops to send
MRP_Test frames it would get the MRM role and start to send MRP_Test
frames.

4b3a61b030 bridge: mrp: Set the priority of MRP instance
Each MRP instance has a priority, a lower value means a higher priority.
The priority of MRP instance is stored in MRP_Test frame in this way
all the MRP nodes in the ring can see other nodes priority.

Implement the MRP api for switchdev.
These functions will just eventually call the switchdev functions:
switchdev_port_obj_add/del and switchdev_port_attr_set.
