Allow registering rate object for devlink ports with dedicated
devlink_rate_leaf_{create|destroy}() API. Implement new netlink
DEVLINK_CMD_RATE_GET command that is used to retrieve rate object info.
Add new DEVLINK_CMD_RATE_{NEW|DEL} commands that are used for
notifications when creating/deleting leaf rate object.
Rate API is intended to be used for rate limiting of individual
devlink ports (leafs) and their aggregates (nodes).
Example:
$ devlink port show
pci/0000:03:00.0/0
pci/0000:03:00.0/1
$ devlink port function rate show
pci/0000:03:00.0/0: type leaf
pci/0000:03:00.0/1: type leaf

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
