This is a new async message that the firmware can send to check if it
can communicate with the driver. This is an added error detection
scheme that firmware can use if it suspects errors in the PCIe
interface. When the driver receives this async message, it will reply
back echoing some data in the async message. If the firmware is not
getting the reply with the proper data after some retries, error
recovery will kick in.

If firmware provides the offset to the "context kind" field of the
relevant context memory blocks, we'll initialize just that field for
each block instead of initializing all of context memory.
Populate the bnxt_mem_init structure with the proper offset returned
by firmware. If it is older firmware and the information is not
available, we set the offset to an invalid value and fall back to
the old behavior of initializing every byte. Otherwise, we initialize
only the "context kind" byte at the offset.

Currently, the driver calls memset() to set all relevant context memory
used by the chip to the initial value. This can take many milliseconds
with the potentially large number of context pages allocated for the
chip.
To make this faster, we only need to initialize the "context kind" field
of each block of context memory. This patch sets up the infrastructure
to do that with the bnxt_mem_init structure. In the next patch, we'll
add the logic to obtain the offset of the "context kind" from the
firmware. This patch is not changing the current behavior of calling
memset() to initialize all relevant context memory.

During some fatal firmware error conditions, the PCI config space
register 0x2e which normally contains the subsystem ID will become
0xffff. This register will revert back to the normal value after
the chip has completed core reset. If we detect this condition,
we can poll this config register immediately for the value to revert.
Because we use config read cycles to poll this register, there is no
possibility of Master Abort if we happen to read it during core reset.
This speeds up recovery significantly as we don't have to wait for the
conservative min_time before polling MMIO to see if the firmware has
come out of reset. As soon as this register changes value we can
proceed to re-initialize the device.

The function bnxt_get_ulp_stat_ctxs() does not count the stats contexts

additional stats contexts will be needed. This is not true when the
RDMA driver is about to unregister and frees the MSIX vectors.
This slight error leads to over accouting of the stats contexts needed
after the RDMA driver has unloaded. This will cause some firmware
warning and error messages in dmesg during subsequent config. changes
or ifdown/ifup.
Fix it by properly accouting for extra stats contexts only if the
RDMA driver is registered and MSIX vectors have been successfully
requested.

Improve the scheme by using smaller DMA blocks and calling firmware to

When performing a flash update via devlink, device drivers may inform
user space of status updates via
devlink_flash_update_(begin|end|timeout|status)_notify functions.
It is expected that drivers do not send any status notifications unless
they send a begin and end message. If a driver sends a status
notification without sending the appropriate end notification upon
finishing (regardless of success or failure), the current implementation
of the devlink userspace program can get stuck endlessly waiting for the
end notification that will never come.
The current ice driver implementation may send such a status message
without the appropriate end notification in rare cases.
Fixing the ice driver is relatively simple: we just need to send the
begin_notify at the start of the function and always send an end_notify
no matter how the function exits.
Rather than assuming driver authors will always get this right in the
future, lets just fix the API so that it is not possible to get wrong.
Make devlink_flash_update_begin_notify and
devlink_flash_update_end_notify static, and call them in devlink.c core
code. Always send the begin_notify just before calling the driver's
flash_update routine. Always send the end_notify just after the routine
returns regardless of success or failure.
Doing this makes the status notification easier to use from the driver,
as it no longer needs to worry about catching failures and cleaning up
by calling devlink_flash_update_end_notify. It is now no longer possible
to do the wrong thing in this regard. We also save a couple of lines of
code in each driver.

All drivers which implement the devlink flash update support, with the
exception of netdevsim, use either request_firmware or
request_firmware_direct to locate the firmware file. Rather than having
each driver do this separately as part of its .flash_update
implementation, perform the request_firmware within net/core/devlink.c
Replace the file_name parameter in the struct devlink_flash_update_params
with a pointer to the fw object.
Use request_firmware rather than request_firmware_direct. Although most
Linux distributions today do not have the fallback mechanism
implemented, only about half the drivers used the _direct request, as
compared to the generic request_firmware. In the event that
a distribution does support the fallback mechanism, the devlink flash
update ought to be able to use it to provide the firmware contents. For
distributions which do not support the fallback userspace mechanism,
there should be essentially no difference between request_firmware and
request_firmware_direct.
