Add reload limit to demand restrictions on reload actions.
Reload limits supported:
no_reset: No reset allowed, no down time allowed, no link flap and no
configuration is lost.
By default reload limit is unspecified and so no constraints on reload
actions are required.
Some combinations of action and limit are invalid. For example, driver
can not reinitialize its entities without any downtime.
The no_reset reload limit will have usecase in this patchset to
implement restricted fw_activate on mlx5.
Have the uapi parameter of reload limit ready for future support of
multiselection.

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.
