Jacob Keller 141d0c9037 net: intel: move RSS packet classifier types to libie
The Intel i40e, iavf, and ice drivers all include a definition of the
packet classifier filter types used to program RSS hash enable bits. For
i40e, these bits are used for both the PF and VF to configure the PFQF_HENA
and VFQF_HENA registers.

For ice and iAVF, these bits are used to communicate the desired hash
enable filter over virtchnl via its struct virtchnl_rss_hashena. The
virtchnl.h header makes no mention of where the bit definitions reside.

Maintaining a separate copy of these bits across three drivers is
cumbersome. Move the definition to libie as a new pctype.h header file.
Each driver can include this, and drop its own definition.

The ice implementation also defined a ICE_AVF_FLOW_FIELD_INVALID, intending
to use this to indicate when there were no hash enable bits set. This is
confusing, since the enumeration is using bit positions. A value of 0
*should* indicate the first bit. Instead, rewrite the code that uses
ICE_AVF_FLOW_FIELD_INVALID to just check if the avf_hash is zero. From
context this should be clear that we're checking if none of the bits are
set.

The values are kept as bit positions instead of encoding the BIT_ULL
directly into their value. While most users will simply use BIT_ULL
immediately, i40e uses the macros both with BIT_ULL and test_bit/set_bit
calls.

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.
