net/mlx5e: Refactor on-the-fly configuration changes
This commit extends mlx5e_safe_switch_channels() to support on-the-fly configuration changes, when the channels are open, but don't need to be recreated. Such flows exist when a parameter being changed doesn't affect how the queues are created, or when the queues can be modified while remaining active. Before this commit, such flows were handled as special cases on the caller site. This commit adds this functionality to mlx5e_safe_switch_channels(), allowing the caller to pass a boolean indicating whether it's required to recreate the channels or it's allowed to skip it. The logic of switching channel parameters is now completely encapsulated into mlx5e_safe_switch_channels(). Signed-off-by:Maxim Mikityanskiy <maximmi@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by:
