  The NIC can have multiple PCIe links and can be attached to multiple
hosts, for example the same single NIC can be shared for multiple server
units in the rack. On each PCIe link NIC can provide multiple PFs and
VFs/SFs based on these ones. The full representor identifier consists of
three indices - controller index, PF index, and VF or SF index (if any).

SR-IOV and SubFunction are created on top of PF. PF index is introduced
because there might be multiple PFs in the bonding configuration and
only bonding device is probed.

In eth representor comparator callback, ethdev was compared with devarg.
Since ethdev representor port didn't contain controller index and PF
index information, callback returned representor from other PF or
controller.

This patch changes representor ID to bitmap so that the ethdev
representor comparer callback returns correct ethdev by comparing full
representor information including: controller index, PF index,
representor type, SF or VF index.

Representor ID bitmap definition:
 xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx
 |||| |LLL LLLL LLLL vf/sf id
 |||| L 1:sf, 0:vf
 ||LL pf id
 LL controller(host) id

This approach keeps binary compatibility with all drivers, VF
representor id matches with simple id for non-bonding and non-multi-host
configurations.

In the future, the representor ID field and each section should extend
to bigger width to support more devices.

Not just in this patch, there is a lot of info in the commit logs.
Unless I missed it, I don't see an update to
doc/guides/prog_guide/switch_representation.rst
Can you please update that.
