If a user unbinds and re-binds a NC-SI aware driver the kernel will
attempt to register the netlink interface at runtime. The structure is
marked __ro_after_init so registration fails spectacularly at this point.

Jakub pointed out that ncsi_register_dev is obviously broken, because
there is only one family so it would never work if there was more than
one ncsi netdev.

Fix the crash by registering the netlink family once on boot, and drop
the code to unregister it.

<title>treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'</title>

<id>a7f7f6248d9740d710fd6bd190293fe5e16410ac</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over
'---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually
decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances.

This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines,
I also fixed the indentation.

There are a variety of indentation styles found.

  a) 4 spaces + '---help---'
  b) 7 spaces + '---help---'
  c) 8 spaces + '---help---'
  d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---'
  e) 1 tab + '---help---'    (correct indentation)
  f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---'
  g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---'

In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the
following commend:

  $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/'

Multi host Mellanox cards require MAC affinity to be set
before receiving any config commands. All config commands
should also have unicast address for source address in
command header.

Adding GMA and SMAF(Set Mac Affinity) for Mellanox card
and call these in channel probe state machine if it is
defined in device tree.

gma_flag was set at the time of GMA command request but it should
only be set after getting successful response. Movinng this flag
setting in GMA response handler.

This flag is used mainly for not repeating GMA command once
received MAC address.

<title>net/ncsi: Disable global multicast filter</title>

Disabling multicast filtering from NCSI if it is supported. As it
should not filter any multicast packets. In current code, multicast
filter is enabled and with an exception of optional field supported
by device are disabled filtering.

Mainly I see if goal is to disable filtering for IPV6 packets then let
it disabled for every other types as well. As we are seeing issues with
LLDP not working with this enabled filtering. And there are other issues
with IPV6.

By Disabling this multicast completely, it is working for both IPV6 as
well as LLDP.

This patch adds handlers for PLDM over NC-SI command response.

This enables NC-SI driver recognizes the packet type so the responses
don't get dropped as unknown packet type.

PLDM over NC-SI are not handled in kernel driver for now, but can be
passed back to user space via Netlink for further handling.
