Allow adding bond net devices to mlx5 bridge with following changes: - Modify bridge representor code to obtain uplink represetor that belongs to eswitch that is registered for notification. Require representor to be in shared FDB mode. If representor is the lag master, then consider its port as local, otherwise treat it as peer. - Use devcom to match on paired eswitch metadata in peer FDB entries. This is necessary for shared FDB LAG to function since packets are always received on active eswitch instance as opposed to parent eswitch of port. - Support for deleting peer flows when receiving SWITCHDEV_FDB_DEL_TO_BRIDGE notification was implemented in one of previous patches in series. Now also implement support for handling SWITCHDEV_FDB_ADD_TO_BRIDGE which can be generated on peer by bridge update workqueue task in LAG configuration. Refresh the flow 'lastuse' timestamp to current jiffies when receiving such notification on eswitch that manages the local FDB entry. This allows peer entries to prevent ageing of the FDB.

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.
