devlink: add parameter documentation for the mlx4 driver
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The mlx5 and mlxsw drivers have driver-specific documentation for the
devlink features they support. No such file was added for mlx4.

Add a file to document the mlx4 devlink support. Initially it contains
only the devlink parameters.
