8680a60fc1 net/mlx5: Let user configure max_macs generic param
Currently, max_macs is taking 70Kbytes of memory per function. This
size is not needed in all use cases, and is critical with large scale.
Hence, allow user to configure the number of max_macs.

For example, to reduce the number of max_macs to 1, execute::
$ devlink dev param set pci/0000:00:0b.0 name max_macs value 1 \
              cmode driverinit
$ devlink dev reload pci/0000:00:0b.0

57ca767820 net/mlx5: Let user configure event_eq_size param
Event EQ is an EQ which received the notification of almost all the
events generated by the NIC.
Currently, each event EQ is taking 512KB of memory. This size is not
needed in most use cases, and is critical with large scale. Hence,
allow user to configure the size of the event EQ.

For example to reduce event EQ size to 64, execute::
$ devlink dev param set pci/0000:00:0b.0 name event_eq_size value 64 \
              cmode driverinit
$ devlink dev reload pci/0000:00:0b.0

0844fa5f7b net/mlx5: Let user configure io_eq_size param
Currently, each I/O EQ is taking 128KB of memory. This size
is not needed in all use cases, and is critical with large scale.
Hence, allow user to configure the size of I/O EQs.

For example, to reduce I/O EQ size to 64, execute:
$ devlink dev param set pci/0000:00:0b.0 name io_eq_size value 64 \
              cmode driverinit
$ devlink dev reload pci/0000:00:0b.0

87dac697a0 net/mlx5e: Add devlink fdb_large_groups parameter
Add a devlink parameter to control the number of large groups in a
autogrouped flow table. The default value is 15, and the range is between 1
and 1024.

The size of each large group can be calculated according to the following
formula: size = 4M / (fdb_large_groups + 1).

Examples:
- Set the number of large groups to 20.
    $ devlink dev param set pci/0000:82:00.0 name fdb_large_groups \
      cmode driverinit value 20

  Then run devlink reload command to apply the new value.
    $ devlink dev reload pci/0000:82:00.0

- Read the number of large groups in flow table.
    $ devlink dev param show pci/0000:82:00.0 name fdb_large_groups
    pci/0000:82:00.0:
      name fdb_large_groups type driver-specific
        values:
          cmode driverinit value 20

d4255d7585 devlink: document info versions for each driver
Add the set of info versions reported by each device driver, including
a description of what the version represents, and what modes (fixed,
running, stored) it reports.

6c39e015f8 devlink: convert driver-specific files to reStructuredText
Several drivers document what parameters they support in
a devlink-params-*.txt file. This file is supposed to contain both the
list of generic parameters implemented by the driver, as well as a list
of driver-specific parameters and their descriptions.

It would also be good if the driver documentation included other
driver-specific implementations, such as info versions, devlink
regions, and so forth.

Convert all of these documentation files to reStructuredText, and rename
them to just the driver name. Future changes will include other
driver-specific implementations. Each file will contain a table for the
generic parameters implemented, as well as a separate table for the
driver-specific parameters.

Future sections such as for devlink info versions will be added to these
files. This avoids creating additional devlink-<feature>-<driver> files
for each devlink feature, reducing clutter in the documentation folder.
