    mlxsw: spectrum_fid: Allow setting and clearing NVE properties on FID · d3d19d4b

    In the device, the VNI and the list of remote VTEPs a packet should be
    flooded to is a property of the filtering identifier (FID).
    
    During encapsulation, the VNI is taken from the FID the packet was
    classified to. During decapsulation, the overlay packet is injected into
    a bridge and classified to a FID based on the VNI it came with.
    
    Allow NVE configuration for a FID. Currently, this is only supported
    with 802.1D FIDs which are used for VLAN-unaware bridges. However, NVE
    configuration is going to be supported with 802.1Q FIDs which is why the
    related fields are placed in the common FID struct.
    
    Since the device requires a 1:1 mapping between FID and VNI, the driver
    maintains a hashtable keyed by VNI and checks if the VNI is already
    associated with an existing FID.
