In case the policer drop counter is retrieved when the jiffies value is
a multiple of 64, the counter will not be incremented.

This randomly breaks a selftest [1] the reads the counter twice and
checks that it was incremented:

```
TEST: Trap policer                                                  [FAIL]
	Policer drop counter was not incremented
```

Fix by always incrementing the counter by 1.

<content type='text'>
Packet trap groups are used to aggregate logically related packet traps.
Currently, these groups allow user space to batch operations such as
setting the trap action of all member traps.

In order to prevent the CPU from being overwhelmed by too many trapped
packets, it is desirable to bind a packet trap policer to these groups.
For example, to limit all the packets that encountered an exception
during routing to 10Kpps.

Allow device drivers to bind default packet trap policers to packet trap
groups when the latter are registered with devlink.

The next patch will enable user space to change this default binding.

Register three dummy packet trap policers with devlink and implement
callbacks to change their parameters and read their counters.

This will be used later on in the series to test the devlink-trap
policer infrastructure.

v2:
* Remove check about burst size being a power of 2 and instead add a
  debugfs knob to fail the operation
* Provide max/min rate/burst size when registering policers and remove
  the validity checks from nsim_dev_devlink_trap_policer_set()

<title>devlink: track snapshot id usage count using an xarray</title>

<id>urn:sha1:12102436acf949b5e6eb087846b47488db2aa440</id>
<content type='text'>
Each snapshot created for a devlink region must have an id. These ids
are supposed to be unique per "event" that caused the snapshot to be
created. Drivers call devlink_region_snapshot_id_get to obtain a new id
to use for a new event trigger. The id values are tracked per devlink,
so that the same id number can be used if a triggering event creates
multiple snapshots on different regions.

There is no mechanism for snapshot ids to ever be reused. Introduce an
xarray to store the count of how many snapshots are using a given id,
replacing the snapshot_id field previously used for picking the next id.

The devlink_region_snapshot_id_get() function will use xa_alloc to
insert an initial value of 1 value at an available slot between 0 and
U32_MAX.

The new __devlink_snapshot_id_increment() and
__devlink_snapshot_id_decrement() functions will be used to track how
many snapshots currently use an id.

Drivers must now call devlink_snapshot_id_put() in order to release
their reference of the snapshot id after adding region snapshots.

By tracking the total number of snapshots using a given id, it is
possible for the decrement() function to erase the id from the xarray
when it is not in use.

With this method, a snapshot id can become reused again once all
snapshots that referred to it have been deleted via
DEVLINK_CMD_REGION_DEL, and the driver has finished adding snapshots.

This work also paves the way to introduce a mechanism for userspace to
request a snapshot.

<title>devlink: report error once U32_MAX snapshot ids have been used</title>

<id>urn:sha1:7ef19d3b1d5e2e1dad64d41df708638f20c5917f</id>
<content type='text'>
The devlink_snapshot_id_get() function returns a snapshot id. The
snapshot id is a u32, so there is no way to indicate an error code.

A future change is going to possibly add additional cases where this
function could fail. Refactor the function to return the snapshot id in
an argument, so that it can return zero or an error value.

This ensures that snapshot ids cannot be confused with error values, and
aids in the future refactor of snapshot id allocation management.

Because there is no current way to release previously used snapshot ids,
add a simple check ensuring that an error is reported in case the
snapshot_id would over flow.

<title>devlink: convert snapshot destructor callback to region op</title>

<content type='text'>
It does not makes sense that two snapshots for a given region would use
different destructors. Simplify snapshot creation by adding
a .destructor op for regions.

This operation will replace the data_destructor for the snapshot
creation, and makes snapshot creation easier.

<content type='text'>
Modify the devlink region code in preparation for adding new operations
on regions.

Create a devlink_region_ops structure, and move the name pointer from
within the devlink_region structure into the ops structure (similar to
the devlink_health_reporter_ops).

This prepares the regions to enable support of additional operations in
the future such as requesting snapshots, or accessing the region
directly without a snapshot.

In order to re-use the constant strings in the mlx4 driver their
declaration must be changed to 'const char * const' to ensure the
compiler realizes that both the data and the pointer cannot change.
