mlxsw: spectrum: Configure MC-aware mode on mlxsw ports
In order to give unicast traffic precedence over BUM traffic, configure multicast-aware mode on all ports. Under multicast-aware regime, when assigning traffic class to a packet, the switch doesn't merely take the value prescribed by the QTCT register. For BUM traffic, it instead assigns that value plus 8. ETS elements for TCs 8..15 thus need to be configured as well. Extend mlxsw_sp_port_ets_init() so that it maps each of them to the same subgroup as their corresponding TC from the range 0..7, such that TCs X and X+8 map to the same subgroup. The existing code configures TCs with strict priority. So far this was immaterial, because each TC had its own subgroup. Now that two TCs share a subgroup it becomes important. TCs are prioritized in order of 7, 6, ..., 0, 15, 14, ..., 8: the higher TCs used for BUM traffic end up being deprioritized. Since that's what's needed, keep that configuration as it is, and configure the new TCs likewise. Finally in mlxsw_sp_port_create(), invoke configuration of QTCTM to enable MC-aware mode on each port.
