Use atomic_notifier_chain to fire firmware events at internal mlx5 core
components such as eswitch/fpga/clock/FW tracer/etc.., this is to
avoid explicit calls from low level mlx5_core to upper components and to
simplify the mlx5_core API for future developments.
Simply provide register/unregister notifiers API and call the notifier
chain on firmware async events.
Example: to subscribe to a FW event:
struct mlx5_nb port_event;
MLX5_NB_INIT(&port_event, port_event_handler, PORT_CHANGE);
mlx5_eq_notifier_register(mdev, &port_event);
where:
- port_event_handler is the notifier block callback.
- PORT_EVENT is the suffix of MLX5_EVENT_TYPE_PORT_CHANGE.
The above will guarantee that port_event_handler will receive all FW
events of the type MLX5_EVENT_TYPE_PORT_CHANGE.
To receive all FW/HW events one can subscribe to
MLX5_EVENT_TYPE_NOTIFY_ANY.
The next few patches will start moving all mlx5 core components to use
this new API and cleanup mlx5_eq_async_int misx handler from component
explicit calls and specific logic.

Use the new generic EQ API to move all ODP RDMA data structures and logic
form mlx5 core driver into mlx5_ib driver.

Add mlx5_eq_{create/destroy}_generic APIs and EQE access methods, for
mlx5 core consumers generic EQs.
This API will be used in downstream patch to move page fault (RDMA ODP)
EQ logic into mlx5_ib rdma driver, hence it will use a generic EQ.
Current mlx5 EQ allocation scheme:
On load mlx5 allocates 4 (for async) + #cores (for data completions)
MSIX vectors, mlx5 core will assign 3 MSIX vectors for internal async
EQs and will use all of the #cores MSIX vectors for completion EQs,
(One vector is going to be reserved for a generic EQ).
After this patch an external user (e.g mlx5_ib) of mlx5_core
can use this new API to create new generic EQs with the reserved msix
vector index for that eq.
