mlxsw: Add VxLAN support with VLAN-aware bridges

Commit 53e50a6ec2 ("Merge branch 'mlxsw-Add-VxLAN-support'") added
mlxsw support for VxLAN when the VxLAN device was enslaved to
VLAN-unaware bridges. This patchset extends mlxsw to also support VxLAN
with VLAN-aware bridges.

With VLAN-aware bridges, the VxLAN device's VNI is mapped to the VLAN
that is configured as 'pvid untagged' on the corresponding bridge port.
To prevent ambiguity, mlxsw forbids configurations in which the same
VLAN is configured as 'pvid untagged' on multiple VxLAN devices.

Patches #1-#2 add the necessary APIs in mlxsw and the bridge driver.

Patches #3-#4 perform small refactoring in order to prepare mlxsw for
VLAN-aware support.

Patch #5 finally enables the enslavement of VxLAN devices to a
VLAN-aware bridge. Among other things, it extends mlxsw to handle
switchdev notifications about VLAN add / delete on a VxLAN device
enslaved to an offloaded VLAN-aware bridge.

Patches #6-#8 add selftests to test the new functionality.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
