dpaa2-eth: add a dpaa2_eth_ prefix to all functions in dpaa2-eth-dcb.c

Some static functions in the dpaa2-eth driver don't have the dpaa2_eth_
prefix and this is becoming an inconvenience when looking at, for
example, a perf top output and trying to determine easily which entries
are dpaa2-eth related. Ammend this by adding the prefix to all the
functions.

dpaa2-eth: Keep congestion group taildrop enabled when PFC on

Leave congestion group taildrop enabled for all traffic classes
when PFC is enabled. Notification threshold is low enough such
that it will be hit first and this also ensures that FQs on
traffic classes which are not PFC enabled won't drain the buffer
pool.

FQ taildrop threshold is kept disabled as long as any form of
flow control is on. Since FQ taildrop works with bytes, not number
of frames, we can't guarantee it will not interfere with the
congestion notification mechanism for all frame sizes.

dpaa2-eth: Add PFC support through DCB ops

Add support in dpaa2-eth for PFC (Priority Flow Control)
through the DCB ops.

Instruct the hardware to respond to received PFC frames.
Current firmware doesn't allow us to selectively enable PFC
on the Rx side for some priorities only, so we will react to
all incoming PFC frames (and stop transmitting on the traffic
classes specified in the frame).

Also, configure the hardware to generate PFC frames based on Rx
congestion notifications. When a certain number of frames accumulate in
the ingress queues corresponding to a traffic class, priority flow
control frames are generated for that TC.

The number of PFC traffic classes available can be queried through
lldptool. Also, which of those traffic classes have PFC enabled is also
controlled through the same dcbnl_rtnl_ops callbacks.
