Add trunking support to the driver. Trunking is found on more recent asics. In general, trunking appears as a single "port" to the driver and overall behavior doesn't differ. Link speed is reported as an aggregate value, while link speed control is done on a per-physical link basis with all links in the trunk symmetrical. Some commands returning port information are updated to additionally provide trunking information. And new ACQEs are generated to report physical link events relative to the trunk. This patch contains the following modifications: - Added link speed settings of 128GB and 256GB. - Added handling of trunk-related ACQEs, mainly logging and trapping of physical link statuses. - Added additional bsg interface to query trunk state by applications. - Augment link_state sysfs attribtute to display trunk link status Signed-off-by: Dick Kennedy <dick.kennedy@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: James Smart <jsmart2021@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Martin K.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
