mlxsw: cleanup neigh handling
Ido says:
This series addresses long standing issues in the mlxsw driver
concerning neighbour reflection. It also prepares the code for follow-up
changes dealing with proper resource cleanup and nexthop reflection.
The first two patches convert the neighbour reflection code to use an
ordered workqueue, to prevent re-ordering of NEIGH_UPDATE events that
may happen following subsequent patches.
The third to fifth patches remove the ndo_neigh_{construct,destroy}
entry points from the driver, thereby relying only on NEIGH_UPDATE
events for neighbour reflection. This simplifies the code considerably.
Last patches are fallout and adjust nits in the code I noticed while
going over it.

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.
