Parav Pandit fbd4b581cb devlink: Add optional controller user input
A user optionally provides the external controller number when user
wants to create devlink port for the external controller.

$ devlink dev eswitch set pci/0033:01:00.0 mode switchdev

$ devlink port show
pci/0033:01:00.0/196607: type eth netdev enP51p1s0f0np0 flavour physical port 0 splittable false
pci/0033:01:00.0/131072: type eth netdev eth0 flavour pcipf controller 1 pfnum 0 external true splittable false
  function:
    hw_addr 00:00:00:00:00:00

$ devlink port add pci/0033:01:00.0 flavour pcisf pfnum 0 sfnum 77 controller 1
pci/0033:01:00.0/163840: type eth netdev eth1 flavour pcisf controller 1 pfnum 0 sfnum 77 external true splittable false
