The name 'netns_local' is confusing. A following commit will export it via
netlink, so let's use a more explicit name.

netdev_features: convert NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL to dev->netns_local

"Interface can't change network namespaces" is rather an attribute,
not a feature, and it can't be changed via Ethtool.
Make it a "cold" private flag instead of a netdev_feature and free
one more bit.

docs: net: add an explanation of VF (and other) Representors

There's no clear explanation of what VF Representors are for, their
semantics, etc., outside of vendor docs and random conference slides.
Add a document explaining Representors and defining what drivers that
implement them are expected to do.

Documentation: networking: switchdev: fix command for static FDB entries

The "bridge fdb add" command provided in the switchdev documentation is
junk now, not only because it is syntactically incorrect and rejected by
the iproute2 bridge program, but also because it was not updated in
light of Arkadi Sharshevsky's radical switchdev refactoring in commit
29ab586c3d83 ("net: switchdev: Remove bridge bypass support from
switchdev"). Try to explain what the intended usage pattern is with the
new kernel implementation.

Documentation: networking: switchdev: clarify device driver behavior

This patch provides details on the expected behavior of switchdev
enabled network devices when operating in a "stand alone" mode, as well
as when being bridge members. This clarifies a number of things that
recently came up during a bug fixing session on the b53 DSA switch
driver.
