[net-next 04/13] net/mlx5e: Vxlan, replace spinlock with read-write lock

[Saeed Mahameed]

From: Gal Pressman <g...@mellanox.com>

The VXLAN database is mainly used by readers in data path, and rarely
used by control path writers.
Multiple readers (threads) should not block each other and cause an
unnecessary contention on the lock.

Replacing the spinlock with rwlock optimizes the common use case where
adding ports to the table (adding VXLAN interfaces) is quite rare, but
the table is accessed for each VXLAN TX skb.
