[PATCH net-next mlxsw 4/4] mlxsw: spectrum_router: Optimize processing of VRRP MACs

Hosts using a VRRP router send their packets with a destination MAC of
the VRRP router which is of the following form [1]:

IPv4 - 00-00-5E-00-01-{VRID}
IPv6 - 00-00-5E-00-02-{VRID}

Where VRID is the ID of the virtual router. Such packets are directed to
the router block in the ASIC by an FDB entry that was added in the
previous patch.

However, in certain cases it is possible to skip this FDB lookup and
send such packets directly the router. This is accomplished by adding
these special MAC addresses to the RIF cache. If the cache is hit, the
packet would skip the L2 lookup and ingress the router with the RIF
specified in the cache entry.
