This series adds per-vPort Event Queue (EQ) allocation and MSI-X interrupt
management for the MANA driver. Previously, all vPorts shared a single set
of EQs. This change enables dedicated EQs per vPort with support for both
dedicated and shared MSI-X vector allocation modes.

Patch 1 moves EQ ownership from mana_context to per-vPort mana_port_context
and exports create/destroy functions for the RDMA driver.

Patch 2 adds device capability queries to determine whether MSI-X vectors
should be dedicated per-vPort or shared. When the number of available MSI-X
vectors is insufficient for dedicated allocation, the driver enables sharing
mode with bitmap-based vector assignment.

Patch 3 introduces the GIC (GDMA IRQ Context) abstraction with reference
counting, allowing multiple EQs to safely share a single MSI-X vector.

Patch 4 converts the global EQ allocation in probe/resume to use the new
GIC functions.

Patch 5 adds per-vPort GIC lifecycle management, calling get/put on each
EQ creation and destruction during vPort open/close.

Patch 6 extends the same GIC lifecycle management to the RDMA driver's EQ
allocation path and advertises the EQ_MSI_UNSHARE_MULTI_VPORT capability.

Tested on Azure VMs with 2, 3, and 4 NIC configurations:
- Both MSI sharing modes verified: mode 0 (dedicated) and mode 1 (shared)
- NIC up/down with clean VF data path switch on all interfaces
- Bulk NIC down/up (all interfaces simultaneously)
- iperf3 throughput: up to 181 Gbps (16 streams, Boost192)

Changes in v2:
- Rebased onto net-next/main
- Fixed spelling typo in patch 3 ("difference" -> "different")
- Moved HW_VPORT_LINK_AWARE define to numerical order in patch 6

Long Li (6):
  net: mana: Create separate EQs for each vPort
  net: mana: Query device capabilities and configure MSI-X sharing for
    EQs
  net: mana: Introduce GIC context with refcounting for interrupt
    management
  net: mana: Use GIC functions to allocate global EQs
  net: mana: Allocate interrupt context for each EQ when creating vPort
  RDMA/mana_ib: Allocate interrupt contexts on EQs
