devlink: Fix length of eswitch inline-mode

Set eswitch inline-mode to be u8, not u16. Otherwise, errors below

$ devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:08:00.0 mode switchdev \
inline-mode network
Error: Attribute failed policy validation.
kernel answers: Numerical result out of rang
netlink: 'devlink': attribute type 26 has an invalid length.

devlink: add a command to set notification filter and use it for multicasts

Currently the user listening on a socket for devlink notifications
gets always all messages for all existing instances, even if he is
interested only in one of those. That may cause unnecessary overhead
on setups with thousands of instances present.

User is currently able to narrow down the devlink objects replies
to dump commands by specifying select attributes.

Allow similar approach for notifications. Introduce a new devlink
NOTIFY_FILTER_SET which the user passes the select attributes. Store
these per-socket and use them for filtering messages
during multicast send.

devlink: Acquire device lock during reload command

Device drivers register with devlink from their probe routines (under
the device lock) by acquiring the devlink instance lock and calling
devl_register().

Drivers that support a devlink reload usually implement the
reload_{down, up}() operations in a similar fashion to their remove and
probe routines, respectively.

However, while the remove and probe routines are invoked with the device
lock held, the reload operations are only invoked with the devlink
instance lock held. It is therefore impossible for drivers to acquire
the device lock from their reload operations, as this would result in
lock inversion.

The motivating use case for invoking the reload operations with the
device lock held is in mlxsw which needs to trigger a PCI reset as part
of the reload. The driver cannot call pci_reset_function() as this
function acquires the device lock. Instead, it needs to call
__pci_reset_function_locked which expects the device lock to be held.

To that end, adjust devlink to always acquire the device lock before the
devlink instance lock when performing a reload.

Do that when reload is explicitly triggered by user space by specifying
the 'DEVLINK_NL_FLAG_NEED_DEV_LOCK' flag in the pre_doit and post_doit
operations of the reload command.

A previous patch already handled the case where reload is invoked as
part of netns dismantle.

netlink: specs: devlink: add the remaining command to generate complete split_ops

Currently, some of the commands are not described in devlink yaml file
and are manually filled in net/devlink/netlink.c in small_ops. To make
all part of split_ops, add definitions of the rest of the commands
alongside with needed attributes and enums.

Note that this focuses on the kernel side. The requests are fully
described in order to generate split_op alongside with policies.
Follow-up will describe the replies in order to make the userspace
helpers complete.

devlink: add split ops generated according to spec

Improve the existing devlink spec in order to serve as a source for
generation of valid devlink split ops for the existing commands.
Add the generated sources.

Node that the policies are narrowed down only to the attributes that
are actually parsed. The dont-validate-strict parsing policy makes sure
that other possibly passed garbage attributes from userspace are
ignored during validation.
