Ido Schimmel 5c8802f14a mlxsw: spectrum_router: Simplify neighbour reflection
Up until now we had two interfaces for neighbour related configuration:
ndo_neigh_{construct,destroy} and NEIGH_UPDATE netevents. The ndos were
used to add and remove neighbours from the driver's cache, whereas the
netevent was used to reflect the neighbours into the device's tables.

However, if the NUD state of a neighbour isn't NUD_VALID or if the
neighbour is dead, then there's really no reason for us to keep it
inside our cache. The only exception to this rule are neighbours that
are also used for nexthops, which we periodically refresh to get them
resolved.

We can therefore eliminate the ndo entry point into the driver and
simplify the code, making it similar to the FIB reflection, which is
based solely on events. This also helps us avoid a locking issue, in
which the RIF cache was traversed without proper locking during
insertion into the neigh entry cache.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
