Source MAC Table (SMT) is used for storing Source MAC
addresses to be written in packets transmitted on the
wire. Hence, the SMT table can be used for overwriting
Source MAC addresses in packets, hitting corresponding
filter rules inserted by the rte_flow API.
Query firmware for SMT start and size information available
to the underlying PF. Allocate and maintain the corresponding
driver's copy of the hardware SMT table, with appropriate
refcount mechanism. If SMT information is not available, then
use the entire hardware SMT table.

Add API to program and manage hardware Multi Port Switch table. MPS
holds destination MAC addresses to be matched against incoming packets
for further rule processing. Packets not matching any entry in MPS table
will be dropped by default, unless the underlying port is in promiscuous
mode.

Add API to program and manage hardware Layer 2 Table. L2T holds
information necessary to rewrite specific fields in packet, such
as destination MAC address and vlan id.

CLIP region holds destination IPv6 addresses to be matched for
corresponding flows. Query firmware for CLIP resources and allocate
table to manage them. Also update LE-TCAM to use CLIP to reduce
number of slots needed to offload IPv6 flows.
