[PATCH v2 00/20] mlx5: refactor devargs management

[Michael Baum]

v2: rebase + fix coverity issue.

These patches rearrange the management of the devargs on two different
levels.

The first splits the net driver's devargs into two categories,
device-dependent devargs and port-dependent devargs.
Arguments that depend on the device are updated once in the creation of
the shared device context structure, and do not change even if the user
has sent new devargs in the probe again. In contrast, the arguments that
depend on the port are updated separately for each port.

The second layer deals with the parsing of devargs in the common driver.
The common driver once parses the devargs into a dictionary, then sends
it to all the drivers that will use it during the their probing. Each
driver updates within dictionary which keys it has used, then the common
driver checks the updated dictionary and reports about unknown devargs.
