Subject: IB/core: Introduce counters read verb
Patch-mainline: v4.18-rc1
Git-commit: 51d7a5387464f1b1fee3f2db9287409189d83d65
References: bsc#1103992 FATE#326009
The user supplies counters instance and a reference to an output array of
uint64_t. The driver reads the hardware counters values and writes them
to the output index location in the user supplied array. All counters
values are represented as uint64_t types.
To be able to successfully read the data the counters must be first bound
to an IB object.
Downstream patches will present binding method for flow counters.
