Merge branch 'devlink-use-spec-to-generate-split-ops'

Jiri Pirko says:

====================
devlink: use spec to generate split ops

This is an outcome of the discussion in the following thread:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230720121829.566974-1-jiri@resnulli.us/
It serves as a dependency on the linked selector patchset.

There is an existing spec for devlink used for userspace part
generation. There are two commands supported there.

This patchset extends the spec so kernel split ops code could
be generated from it.
