net: hns3: support arp proxy
driver inclusion category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I8GQDK CVE: NA ---------------------------------------------------------------------- In RoH mode, the IP and MAC of network devices have a special mapping relationship. The mapping is show as followed: IP: a.b.c.d <------> MAC: 0.0.0.b.c.d Thus, the arp request for find the mac of a ip is not necessary to send to network. The driver can generate a response arp to the protocol stack based on above mapping relationship. Arp proxy is designed to acheive the above function. The scope of ARP proxy include all ARP request message including vlan, except free ARP request and tunnel message. Signed-off-by:Peiyang Wang <wangpeiyang1@huawei.com>
