Aleksandr Loktionov 07af482e64 i40e: add ability to reset VF for Tx and Rx MDD events
Implement "mdd-auto-reset-vf" priv-flag to handle Tx and Rx MDD events for VFs.
This flag is also used in other network adapters like ICE.

Usage:
- "on"  - The problematic VF will be automatically reset
	  if a malformed descriptor is detected.
- "off" - The problematic VF will be disabled.

In cases where a VF sends malformed packets classified as malicious, it can
cause the Tx queue to freeze, rendering it unusable for several minutes. When
an MDD event occurs, this new implementation allows for a graceful VF reset to
quickly restore operational state.

Currently, VF queues are disabled if an MDD event occurs. This patch adds the
ability to reset the VF if a Tx or Rx MDD event occurs. It also includes MDD
event logging throttling to avoid dmesg pollution and unifies the format of
Tx and Rx MDD messages.

Note: Standard message rate limiting functions like dev_info_ratelimited()
do not meet our requirements. Custom rate limiting is implemented,
please see the code for details.

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 reStructuredText 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.
