selftests: forwarding: Move several selftestsThe tests in net/forwarding are generally expected to be HW-independent.There are however several tests that, while not depending on any HW inparticular, nevertheless depend on being used on HW interfaces. Placingthese selftests to net/forwarding is confusing, because the selftest willjust report it can't be run on veth pairs. At the same time, placing themto a particular driver's selftests subdirectory would be wrong.Instead, add a new directory, drivers/net/hw, where these generic but HWindependent selftests should be placed. Move over several such testsincluding one helper library.Since typically these tests will not be expected to run, omit the directorydrivers/net/hw from the TARGETS list in selftests/Makefile. Retain aMakefile in the new directory itself, so that a user can make -C into thatdirectory and act on those tests explicitly.Cc: Roger Quadros Cc: Tobias Waldekranz Cc: Danielle Ratson Cc: Davide Caratti Cc: Johannes Nixdorf Suggested-by: Jakub Kicinski Signed-off-by: Petr Machata Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/e11dae1f62703059e9fc2240004288ac7cc15756.1711464583.git.petrm@nvidia.comSigned-off-by: Jakub Kicinski List of files: /linux-6.15/tools/testing/selftests/drivers/net/hw/settings
