    sfc: replace asynchronous filter operations · 3af0f342
    Edward Cree authored
    Instead of having an efx->type->filter_rfs_insert() method, just use
     workitems with a worker function that calls efx->type->filter_insert().
    The only user of this is efx_filter_rfs(), which now queues a call to
     efx_filter_rfs_work().
    Similarly, efx_filter_rfs_expire() is now a worker function called on a
     new channel->filter_work work_struct, so the method
     efx->type->filter_rfs_expire_one() is no longer called in atomic context.
     We also add a new mutex efx->rps_mutex to protect the RPS state (efx->
     rps_expire_channel, efx->rps_expire_index, and channel->rps_flow_id) so
     that the taking of efx->filter_lock can be moved to
     efx->type->filter_rfs_expire_one().
    Thus, all filter table functions are now called in a sleepable context,
     allowing them to use sleeping locks in a future patch.
