selftests: mlxsw: Add QOS test for maximum use of descriptors
Add an equivalent test to qos_burst, the test's purpose is same, but the
new test uses simpler topology and does not require forcing low speed.
In addition, it can be run Spectrum-2 and not only Spectrum-3+. The idea
is to use a shaper in order to limit the traffic and create congestion.
qos_burst test uses small pool, sends many small packets, and verify that
packets are not dropped, which means that many descriptors can be handled.
This test should check the change that commit c864769add96
("mlxsw: Configure descriptor buffers") pushed.
Instead, the new test tries to use more than 85% of maximum supported
descriptors. The idea is to use big pool (as much as the ASIC supports),
such that the pool size does not limit the traffic, then send many small
packets, which means that many descriptors are used, and check how many
packets the switch can handle.
The usage of shaper allows to run the test in all ASICs, regardless of
the CPU abilities, as it is able to create the congestion with low rate
of packets.

selftests: mlxsw: Add helpers for skipping selftests
A number of mlxsw-specific selftests currently detect whether they are run
on a compatible machine, and bail out silently when not. These tests are
however done in a somewhat impenetrable manner by directly comparing PCI
IDs against a blacklist or a whitelist, and bailing out silently if the
machine is not compatible.
Instead, add a helper, mlxsw_only_on_spectrum(), which allows specifying
the supported machines in a human-readable manner. If the current machine
is incompatible, the helper emits a SKIP message and returns an error code,
based on which the caller can gracefully bail out in a suitable way. This
allows a more readable conditions such as:
mlxsw_only_on_spectrum 2+ || return
Convert all existing open-coded guards to the new helper. Also add two new
guards to do_mark_test() and do_drop_test(), which are supported only on
Spectrum-2+, but the corresponding check was not there.
