i40e: Implement DDP support in i40e driver
This patch introduces DDP (Dynamic Device Personalization) which allows loading profiles that change the way internal parser interprets processed frames. To load DDP profiles it utilizes ethtool flash feature. The files with recipes must be located in /var/lib/firmware directory. Afterwards the recipe can be loaded by invoking: ethtool -f <if_name> <file_name> 100 ethtool -f <if_name> - 100 See further details of this feature in the i40e documentation, or visit https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/architecture-and-technology/ethernet/dynamic-device-personalization-brief.html The driver shall verify DDP profile can be loaded in accordance with the rules: * Package with Group ID 0 are exclusive and can only be loaded the first. * Packages with Group ID 0x01-0xFE can only be loaded simultaneously with the packages from the same group. * Packages with Group ID 0xFF are compatible with all other packages.
