Aleksandr Loktionov cdc594e003 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.

README

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.
