Ido Schimmel 1e8c661989 devlink: Add packet trap policers support
Devices capable of offloading the kernel's datapath and perform
functions such as bridging and routing must also be able to send (trap)
specific packets to the kernel (i.e., the CPU) for processing.

For example, a device acting as a multicast-aware bridge must be able to
trap IGMP membership reports to the kernel for processing by the bridge
module.

In most cases, the underlying device is capable of handling packet rates
that are several orders of magnitude higher compared to those that can
be handled by the CPU.

Therefore, in order to prevent the underlying device from overwhelming
the CPU, devices usually include packet trap policers that are able to
police the trapped packets to rates that can be handled by the CPU.

This patch allows capable device drivers to register their supported
packet trap policers with devlink. User space can then tune the
parameters of these policer (currently, rate and burst size) and read
from the device the number of packets that were dropped by the policer,
if supported.

Subsequent patches in the series will allow device drivers to create
default binding between these policers and packet trap groups and allow
user space to change the binding.

v2:
* Add 'strict_start_type' in devlink policy
* Have device drivers provide max/min rate/burst size for each policer.
  Use them to check validity of user provided parameters
