[SRU][F:linux-bluefield][PATCH v1 0/2] Updates to mlx-bootctl

[Shravan Kumar Ramani]

This submission contains 2 patches relating to the mlx-bootctl driver

1. Check if secure boot is enabled with development keys
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1948434
SRU Justification:

[Impact]
Currently, there is no indication from mlx-bootctl when the user reads the
lifecycle_state sysfs as to whether secure boot is enabled with development
keys or production keys.
In order to make this clear to the user, add a check in the driver.

[Fix]
Check the secure boot development mode status bit. If secure boot is enabled
with the development key, then print it to the output buffer when
lifecycle_state_show() is invoked.

[Test Case]
On a system in secure state, if it has been programmed with development keys,
then reading the lifecycle_state sysfs entry in the mlx-bootctl driver should
print a message that indicates the same.
Similarly, a secure system which has been programmed with production keys must
print the appropriate message when the lifecycle_state sysfs is read.

[Regression Potential]
Can be considered minimum.

2. Add RevID field to VPD info in EEPROM
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1948436
SRU Justification:

[Impact]
Currently, the VPD info stored in the EEPROM does not include a Rev ID. This
field is incremented when a PN goes through minor HW changes. Sometimes, SW
needs to differentiate the two versions of the card. Hence, this field should
be supported in the EEPROM MFG partition.

[Fix]
EC (Engineering Changes) field is used to denote the HW Revision of a PN. Add
it to the EEPROM MFG and provide a sysfs entry to access the same via
mlx-bootctl.

[Test Case]
This field is typically programmed at the manufacturing step using the bfcfg
tool which uses the write mechanism in the driver and then the MFG partition
is locked. Reading the "rev" sysfs will show the current value.

[Regression Potential]
Can be considered minimum.
