Petr Machata c6b36bdd04 mlxsw: spectrum_ptp: Increase parsing depth when PTP is enabled
Spectrum systems have a configurable limit on how far into the packet they
parse. By default, the limit is 96 bytes.

An IPv6 PTP packet is layered as Ethernet/IPv6/UDP (14+40+8 bytes), and
sequence ID of a PTP event is only available 32 bytes into payload, for a
total of 94 bytes. When an additional 802.1q header is present as
well (such as when ptp4l is running on a VLAN port), the parsing limit is
exceeded. Such packets are not recognized as PTP, and are not timestamped.

Therefore generalize the current VXLAN-specific parsing depth setting to
allow reference-counted requests from other modules as well. Keep it in the
VXLAN module, because the MPRS register also configures UDP destination
port number used for VXLAN, and is thus closely tied to the VXLAN code
anyway.

Then invoke the new interfaces from both VXLAN (in obvious places), as well
as from PTP code, when the (global) timestamping configuration changes from
disabled to enabled or vice versa.

README

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.
