[PATCH net-next V2 0/4] net/mlx5: Refactor devcom and add net namespace support

[Tariq Toukan <tariqt@nvidia.com>]

Hi,

This series by Shay improves the mlx5 devcom infrastructure by
introducing a structured matching attribute interface, relocating
certain devcom registration flows to more appropriate locations, and
adding net namespace awareness to the devcom framework and its users.

Patch 1: Refactors the devcom interface to accept a match attribute
structure instead of raw keys, enabling future extensibility such as
namespace-based matching.

Patch 2: Moves the devcom registration for HCA components from the core
code to the LAG layer to better reflect their logical ownership and
lifecycle.

Patch 3: Adds net namespace support to the devcom framework, enabling
components to operate in isolated namespaces.

Patch 4: Updates the LAG layer to make use of the new namespace-aware
devcom interface and improves reload behavior in LAG mode.

Regards,
Tariq
