Subject: [PATCH v2] net/mlx5: support match with E-Switch manager

Currently, in switch mode, mlx5 PMD only supports match with
dedicated vport. There is a use case which user may want to
offload the rules only to match with all the packet sent by
application not from vport.

Since the port_id info of packet sent by application is
E-Switch manager, and kernel driver has exposed the E-Switch
manager register value, this commit adds the support of
register matching for E-Switch manager.

Patch applied to next-net-mlx,

Kindest regards,
