Yevgeny Kliteynik 8a015baef5 net/mlx5: DR, Improve rule tracking memory consumption
To track each STE of the rule a rule member was allocated, each
member would point to one STE. This means that we would allocate
40B (rule member) * number of STEs per rule.

To reduce this per rule allocation we use the STE tree pointers
for next_htbl and pointing STE to navigate the tree, this allows
us to keep only the pointer to the last STE of rule (always unique).
From the last rule STE we are able to traverse and rebuild all of
the STEs that construct the rule.

In our testing with 8M rules, each consisting of 7 STES, we were able
to reduce 1.6GB of memory.

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.
