Firmware live patch event notifies the driver that the firmware was just
updated using live patch. In such case the driver should not reload or
re-initiate entities, part to updating the firmware version and
re-initiate the firmware tracer which can be updated by live patch with
new strings database to help debugging an issue.

<title>net/mlx5e: Add CQE compression support for multi-strides packets</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b7cf0806e8783e38f881cae3c56f0869e70b8da2</id>
<content type='text'>
Add CQE compression support for completions of packets that span
multiple strides in a Striding RQ, per the HW capability.
In our memory model, we use small strides (256B as of today) for the
non-linear SKB mode. This feature allows CQE compression to work also
for multiple strides packets. In this case decompressing the mini CQE
array will use stride index provided by HW as part of the mini CQE.
Before this feature, compression was possible only for single-strided
packets, i.e. for packets of size up to 256 bytes when in non-linear
mode, and the index was maintained by SW.
This feature is supported for ConnectX-5 and above.

Feature performance test:
This was whitebox-tested, we reduced the PCI speed from 125Gb/s to
62.5Gb/s to overload pci and manipulated mlx5 driver to drop incoming
packets before building the SKB to achieve low cpu utilization.
Outcome is low cpu utilization and bottleneck on pci only.
Test setup:
Server: Intel(R) Xeon(R) Silver 4108 CPU @ 1.80GHz server, 32 cores
NIC: ConnectX-6 DX.
Sender side generates 300 byte packets at full pci bandwidth.
Receiver side configuration:
Single channel, one cpu processing with one ring allocated. Cpu utilization
is ~20% while pci bandwidth is fully utilized.
For the generated traffic and interface MTU of 4500B (to activate the
non-linear SKB mode), packet rate improvement is about 19% from ~17.6Mpps
to ~21Mpps.
Without this feature, counters show no CQE compression blocks for
this setup, while with the feature, counters show ~20.7Mpps compressed CQEs
in ~500K compression blocks.

<content type='text'>
Up to ConnectX-7 UMR is not used when user passes relaxed ordering access
flag. ConnectX-7 supports setting relaxed ordering read/write mkey
attribute by UMR, indicated by new HCA capabilities.

With ConnectX-7 driver uses UMR when user set relaxed ordering access
flag, in contrast to previous silicon models. Specifically it includes
setting relvant flags of mkey context mask in UMR control segment, and
relaxed ordering write and read flags in UMR mkey context segment.

Add explicit WQE segment structures for the TLS static and progress
params.
According to the HW spec, TISN is not part of the progress params context,
take it out of it.
Rename the control segment tisn field as it could hold either a TIS or
a TIR number.
