Current MCAM allocation scheme allocates a single lot of MCAM entries for ntuple filters, unicast filters and VF VLAN rules. This patch attempts to cleanup this logic by segregating MCAM rule allocation and management for Ntuple rules and unicast, VF VLAN rules. This segregation will result in reusing most of the logic for supporting ntuple filters for VF devices. Also added debug messages for MCAM entry allocation failures.

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.
