net/mlx5: EQ, Introduce atomic notifier chain subscription API
Use atomic_notifier_chain to fire firmware events at internal mlx5 core
components such as eswitch/fpga/clock/FW tracer/etc.., this is to
avoid explicit calls from low level mlx5_core to upper components and to
simplify the mlx5_core API for future developments.
Simply provide register/unregister notifiers API and call the notifier
chain on firmware async events.
Example: to subscribe to a FW event:
struct mlx5_nb port_event;
where:
- port_event_handler is the notifier block callback.
- PORT_EVENT is the suffix of MLX5_EVENT_TYPE_PORT_CHANGE.
The above will guarantee that port_event_handler will receive all FW
events of the type MLX5_EVENT_TYPE_PORT_CHANGE.
To receive all FW/HW events one can subscribe to
MLX5_EVENT_TYPE_NOTIFY_ANY.
The next few patches will start moving all mlx5 core components to use
this new API and cleanup mlx5_eq_async_int misx handler from component
explicit calls and specific logic.
