Configuring UAR as IO-mapped makes maximum throughput decline by
noticeable amount. If UAR is configured as write-combining register,
a write memory barrier is needed on ringing a doorbell.
rte_wmb() is mostly effective when the size of a burst is comparatively
small. Revert the register back to write-combining and enforce a write
memory barrier instead, except for vectorized Tx burst routines.
Application can change it by setting MLX5_SHUT_UP_BF under its own
necessity.

PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT and PKT_RX_QINQ_PKT are deprecated for a while.
As explained in [1], these flags were kept to let the applications and
PMDs move to the new flag. There is also a need to support Rx vlan
offload without vlan strip (at least for the ixgbe driver).
This patch renames the old flags for this feature, knowing that some
PMDs were using PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT and PKT_RX_QINQ_PKT to indicate that
the vlan tci has been saved in the mbuf structure.
It is likely that some PMDs do not set the proper flags when doing vlan
offload, and it would be worth making a pass on all of them.

This patch introduces new ethdev generic API for Traffic Metering and
Policing (MTR), which is yet another standard RX offload for Ethernet
devices.
Similar to rte_flow and rte_tm APIs, the configuration of MTR objects is
done in their own namespace (rte_mtr) within the librte_ether library.
Main features:
1. Traffic metering: determine the color for the current packet (green,
yellow, red) based on history maintained by the MTR object. Supported
algorithms: srTCM (RFC 2697), trTCM (RFC 2698 and RFC 4115).
2. Policing (per meter output color actions): re-color the packet (keep
or change the meter output color) or drop the packet.
3. Statistics
4. Capability API

This patch dissociates single-queue indirection tables and hash QP objects
from Rx queue structures to relinquish their control to users through the
RSS flow rule action, while simultaneously allowing multiple queues to be
associated with RSS contexts.
Flow rules share identical RSS contexts (hashed fields, hash key, target
queues) to save on memory and other resources. The trade-off is some added
complexity due to reference counters management on RSS contexts.
The QUEUE action is re-implemented on top of an automatically-generated
single-queue RSS context.
The following hardware limitations apply to RSS contexts:
- The number of queues in a group must be a power of two.
- Queue indices must be consecutive, for instance the [0 1 2 3] set is
allowed, however [3 2 1 0], [0 2 1 3] and [0 0 1 1 2 3 3 3] are not.
- The first queue of a group must be aligned to a multiple of the context
size, e.g. if queues [0 1 2 3 4] are defined globally, allowed group
combinations are [0 1] and [2 3]; groups [1 2] and [3 4] are not
supported.
- RSS hash key, while configurable per context, must be exactly 40 bytes
long.
- The only supported hash algorithm is Toeplitz.

This commit brings back VLAN filter configuration support without any
artificial limitation on the number of simultaneous VLANs that can be
configured (previously 127).
Also thanks to the fact it does not rely on fixed per-queue arrays for
potential Verbs flow handle storage anymore, this version wastes a lot less
memory (previously 128 * 127 * pointer size, i.e. 130 kiB per Rx queue,
only one of which actually had any use for this room: the RSS parent
queue).
The number of internal flow rules generated still depends on the number of
configured MAC addresses times that of configured VLAN filters though.
