Ethernet representors have a need to store data which is applicable only for them. Create a priv void pointer in struct mlx5_eswitch_rep and move mlx5e to store the relevant data there. As part of this change we also initialize rep_if in mlx5e_rep_register_vf_vports() as otherwise the E-Switch code will copy a priv value which is garbage. We also rename mlx5_eswitch_get_uplink_netdev() to mlx5_eswitch_get_uplink_priv() and make it return void *. This way E-Switch code doesn't need to deal with net devices and we leave the task of getting it to mlx5e.

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.
