On module load, the ice driver checks for the lack of a specific PF
capability to determine if it should reduce the number of devlink params
to register. One situation when this test returns true is when the
driver loads in safe mode. The same check is not present on the unload
path when devlink params are unregistered. This results in the driver
triggering a WARN_ON in the kernel devlink code.
The current check and code path uses a reduction in the number of elements
reported in the list of params. This is fragile and not good for future
maintaining.
Change the parameters to be held in two lists, one always registered and
one dependent on the check.
Add a symmetrical check in the unload path so that the correct parameters
are unregistered as well.

It was observed that Tx performance was inconsistent across all queues
and/or VSIs and that it was directly connected to existing 9-layer
topology of the Tx scheduler.
Introduce new private devlink param - tx_scheduling_layers. This parameter
gives user flexibility to choose the 5-layer transmit scheduler topology
which helps to smooth out the transmit performance.
Allowed parameter values are 5 and 9.
Example usage:
Show:
devlink dev param show pci/0000:4b:00.0 name tx_scheduling_layers
pci/0000:4b:00.0:
name tx_scheduling_layers type driver-specific
values:
cmode permanent value 9
Set:
devlink dev param set pci/0000:4b:00.0 name tx_scheduling_layers value 5
cmode permanent
devlink dev param set pci/0000:4b:00.0 name tx_scheduling_layers value 9
cmode permanent

Extend devlink_param *set function pointer to take extack as a param.
Sometimes it is needed to pass information to the end user from set
function. It is more proper to use for that netlink instead of passing
message to dmesg.

Only moving whole files, fixing Makefile and bunch of includes.
Some changes to ice_devlink file was done even in representor part (Tx
topology), so keep it as final patch to not mess up with rebasing.
After moving to devlink folder there is no need to have such long name
for these files. Rename them to simple devlink.
