Petr Machata 7b81953066 mlxsw: spectrum: Configure MC-aware mode on mlxsw ports
In order to give unicast traffic precedence over BUM traffic, configure
multicast-aware mode on all ports.

Under multicast-aware regime, when assigning traffic class to a packet,
the switch doesn't merely take the value prescribed by the QTCT
register. For BUM traffic, it instead assigns that value plus 8.

ETS elements for TCs 8..15 thus need to be configured as well. Extend
mlxsw_sp_port_ets_init() so that it maps each of them to the same
subgroup as their corresponding TC from the range 0..7, such that TCs X
and X+8 map to the same subgroup.

The existing code configures TCs with strict priority. So far this was
immaterial, because each TC had its own subgroup. Now that two TCs share
a subgroup it becomes important. TCs are prioritized in order of 7, 6,
..., 0, 15, 14, ..., 8: the higher TCs used for BUM traffic end up being
deprioritized. Since that's what's needed, keep that configuration as it
is, and configure the new TCs likewise.

Finally in mlxsw_sp_port_create(), invoke configuration of QTCTM to
enable MC-aware mode on each port.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
