====================
mlxsw: Preparations for IPv6 UC router

Ido says:

The purpose of this set is to prepare the driver for the introduction of
IPv6 FIB offload. It's mainly composed of small and non-functional
changes, that either add the IPv6 equivalent of existing IPv4 code or
aimed at making the introduction of IPv6-specific code easier.

The first five patches enable IPv6 forwarding in the device and allow us
to configure router interfaces (RIFs) based on inet6addr notifications.

The next six patches add support for programming IPv6 neighbours into
the device's table as well as dumping their activity and updating the
kernel accordingly.

The last 11 patches extend current infrastructure to allow us to program
IPv6 routes, set catch-all IPv6 trap in case of abort and make the code
more receptive towards up-coming changes.
