[PATCH net-next 3/4] devlink: Add new "enable_sfs_aux_devs" generic device param

[Moshe Shemesh]

From: Shay Drory <shayd@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add new device generic parameter to enable/disable creation of
Sub-Functions auxiliary devices of a certain Physical-Function.

User who wants to use specific SFs auxiliary devices, can disable
the creation of all SF auxiliary devices upon SF creation.
After the SF is created, the user can enable only the requested
auxiliary devices.

for example:

$ devlink dev param set pci/0000:08:00.0 \
              name enable_sfs_aux_devs value false cmode driverinit

Create SF:
$ devlink port add pci/0000:08:00.0 flavour pcisf pfnum 0 sfnum 11
$ devlink port function set pci/0000:08:00.0/32768 \
               hw_addr 00:00:00:00:00:11 state active

Enable ETH auxiliary device:
$ devlink dev param set auxiliary/mlx5_core.sf.1 \
              name enable_eth value true cmode driverinit

$ devlink dev reload auxiliary/mlx5_core.sf.1

At this point the user have SF devlink instance with auxiliary device
for the Ethernet functionality only.
