The current way to find if the phy is internal is to compare DT phy-mode
and emac_variant/internal_phy.
But it will negate a possible future SoC where an external PHY use the
same phy mode than the internal one.
By using phy-mode = "internal" we permit to have an external PHY with
the same mode than the internal one.

nfp: get_phys_port_name for representors and SR-IOV reorder
This series starts by making the error message if FW cannot be located
easier to understand. Then I move some functions from PCI probe files
into library code (nfpcore) where they belong, and remove one function
which is never used.
Next few patches equip representors with nfp_port structure and make
their NDOs fully shared (not defined in apps), thanks to which we can
easily determine which netdevs are NFP's by comparing the NDO pointers.
10th patch makes use of the shared NDOs and nfp_ports to deliver
netdev-type independent .ndo_get_phys_port_name() implementation.
Patches 11 and 12 reorder the nfp_app SR-IOV callbacks with enabling
SR-IOV VFs. Unfortunately due to how PCI subsystem works we can't
guarantee being able to disable SR-IOV at exit or that it will be
disabled when we first probe... We must therefore make sure FW is
able to deal with being loaded while SR-IOV is already on.
Patch 13 fixes potential deadlock when enabling SR-IOV happens at
the same time as port state refresh. Note that this can't happen
at this point, since Flower doesn't refresh ports... but lockdep
doesn't know about such details and we will have to deal with this
sooner or later anyway.
Last but not least a new Kconfig is added to make sure those who
don't care about flower offloads have a way of not including the
code in their kernels. Thanks to nfp_app separation this costs us
a single ifdef and excluding flower files from the build.

We previously assumed that app callback can be guaranteed to be
executed before SR-IOV is actually enabled. Given that we can't
guarantee that SR-IOV will be disabled during probe or that we
will be able to disable it on remove, we should reorder the callbacks.
We should also call the app's sriov_enable if SR-IOV was enabled
during probe.
Application FW must be able to disable VFs internally and not depend
on them being removed at PCIe level.

ipv6: udp: exploit dev_scratch helpers
When bringing in the recent cache optimization for the UDP protocol, I forgot
to leverage the newly introduced scratched area helpers in the UDPv6 code path.
As a result, the UDPv6 implementation suffers some unnecessary performance
penality when compared to v4.
This series aim to bring back UDPv6 on equal footing in respect to v4.
The first patch moves the shared helpers to the common include files, while
the second uses them in the UDPv6 code.
This gives 5-8% performance improvement for a system under flood with small
UDPv6 packets. The performance delta is less than the one reported on the
original patch set because the UDPv6 code path already leveraged some of the
optimization.

sctp: RFC 4960 Errata fixes
This patchset contains fixes for 4 Errata topics from
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tsvwg-rfc4960-errata-01
Namely, sections:
3.12. Order of Adjustments of partial_bytes_acked and cwnd
3.22. Increase of partial_bytes_acked in Congestion Avoidance
3.26. CWND Increase in Congestion Avoidance Phase
3.27. Refresh of cwnd and ssthresh after Idle Period
Tests performed with netperf using net namespaces, with drop rates at
0%, 0.5% and 1% by netem, IPv4 and IPv6, 10 runs for each combination.
I couldn't spot differences on the stats. With and without these patches
the results vary in a similar way in terms of throughput and
retransmissions.
Tests with 20ms delay and 20ms delay + drops at 0.5% and 1% also had
results in a similar way, no noticeable difference.
Looking at cwnd, it was possible to notice slightly lower values being
used while still sustaining same throughput profile.

RFC 4960 Errata 3.27 identifies that ssthresh should be adjusted to cwnd
because otherwise it could cause the transport to lock into congestion
avoidance phase specially if ssthresh was previously reduced by some
packet drop, leading to poor performance.
The Errata says to adjust ssthresh to cwnd only once, though the same
goal is achieved by updating it every time we update cwnd too. The
caveat is that we could take longer to get back up to speed but that
should be compensated by the fact that we don't adjust on RTO basis (as
RFC says) but based on Heartbeats, which are usually way longer.
