mlxsw: Cleanups in router code
This patchset moves some router-related code from spectrum.c to
spectrum_router.c where it should be. It also simplifies handlers of
netevent notifications.
- Patch #1 caches router pointer in a dedicated variable. This obviates the
need to access the same as mlxsw_sp->router, making lines shorter, and
permitting a future patch to add code that fits within 80 character
limit.
- Patch #2 moves IP / IPv6 validation notifier blocks from spectrum.c
to spectrum_router, where the handlers are anyway.
- In patch #3, pass router pointer to scheduler of deferred work directly,
instead of having it deduce it on its own.
- This makes the router pointer available in the handler function
mlxsw_sp_router_netevent_event(), so in patch #4, use it directly,
instead of finding it through mlxsw_sp_port.
- In patch #5, extend mlxsw_sp_router_schedule_work() so that the
NETEVENT_NEIGH_UPDATE handler can use it directly instead of inlining
equivalent code.
- In patches #6 and #7, add helpers for two common operations involving
a backing netdev of a RIF. This makes it unnecessary for the function
mlxsw_sp_rif_dev() to be visible outside of the router module, so in
patch #8, hide it.
