Feras Daoud fcd29ad17c net/mlx5: Add Fast teardown support
Today mlx5 devices support two teardown modes:
1- Regular teardown
2- Force teardown

This change introduces the enhanced version of the "Force teardown" that
allows SW to perform teardown in a faster way without the need to reclaim
all the pages.

Fast teardown provides the following advantages:
1- Fix a FW race condition that could cause command timeout
2- Avoid moving to polling mode
3- Close the vport to prevent PCI ACK to be sent without been scatter
to memory

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
