====================
mlx5-updates-2018-02-28-2 (IPSec-2)

This series follows our previous one to lay out the foundations for IPSec
in user-space and extend current kernel netdev IPSec support. As noted in
our previous pull request cover letter "mlx5-updates-2018-02-28-1 (IPSec-1)",
the IPSec mechanism will be supported through our flow steering mechanism.
Therefore, we need to change the initialization order. Furthermore, IPsec
is also supported in both egress and ingress. Since our current flow
steering is egress only, we add an empty (only implemented through FPGA
steering ops) egress namespace to handle that case. We also implement
the required flow steering callbacks and logic in our FPGA driver.

We extend the FPGA support for ESN and modifying a xfrm too. Therefore, we
add support for some new FPGA command interface that supports them. The
other required bits are added too. The new features and requirements are
advertised via cap bits.

Last but not least, we revise our driver's accel_esp API. This API will be
shared between our netdev and IB driver, so we need to have all the required
functionality from both worlds.

Regards,
Aviad and Matan
