mlxsw: spectrum_router: Periodically update activity of nexthop buckets
The kernel periodically checks the idle time of nexthop buckets to determine if they are idle and can be re-populated with a new nexthop. When the resilient nexthop group is offloaded to hardware, the kernel will not see activity on nexthop buckets unless it is reported from hardware. Therefore, periodically (every 1 second) query the hardware for activity of adjacency entries used as part of a resilient nexthop group and report it to the nexthop code. The activity is only queried if resilient nexthop groups are in use. The delayed work is canceled otherwise.
