    devlink: Add API to register packet trap groups · 95ad9555
    Ido Schimmel authored
    Currently, packet trap groups are implicitly registered by drivers upon
    packet trap registration. When the traps are registered, each is
    associated with a group and the group is created by devlink, if it does
    not exist already.
    
    This makes it difficult for drivers to pass additional attributes for
    the groups.
    
    Therefore, as a preparation for future patches that require passing
    additional group attributes, add an API to explicitly register /
    unregister these groups.
    
    Next patches will convert existing drivers to use this API.
