Vlad Zolotarov 619c5cb688 New 7.0 FW: bnx2x, cnic, bnx2i, bnx2fc
New FW/HSI (7.0):
 - Added support to 578xx chips
 - Improved HSI - much less driver's direct access to the FW internal
   memory needed.

New implementation of the HSI handling layer in the bnx2x (bnx2x_sp.c):
 - Introduced chip dependent objects that have chip independent interfaces
   for configuration of MACs, multicast addresses, Rx mode, indirection table,
   fast path queues and function initialization/cleanup.
 - Objects functionality is based on the private function pointers, which
   allows not only a per-chip but also PF/VF differentiation while still
   preserving the same interface towards the driver.
 - Objects interface is not influenced by the HSI changes which do not require
   providing new parameters keeping the code outside the bnx2x_sp.c invariant
   with regard to such HSI chnages.

Changes in a CNIC, bnx2fc and bnx2i modules due to the new HSI.

Bhanu Gollapudi 839900c69d [SCSI] bnx2fc: Avoid holding cq_lock when iounmap() is called
With kernel debugging enabled, holding cq_lock when calling
bnx2fc_free_session_resc() which calls iounmap() leads to a warning
stack trace [INFO: HARDIRQ-safe -> HARDIRQ-unsafe lock order detected].
iounmap() grabs a HARDIRQ-unsafe vmlist lock, so holding
spin_lock_bh(cq_lock) when calling iounmap() will trigger the LOCKDEP
warning.  Since cq_lock is required only to guard against deletion, hold
the lock just before freeing the cq.

Bhanu Gollapudi 853e2bd210 [SCSI] bnx2fc: Broadcom FCoE offload driver
This driver is for Broadcom Netxtreme II 57712 chip. The following
patch contains the driver sources for bnx2fc driver.  libfc/libfcoe
changes to enable bnx2fc have already gone through the fcoe
tree. bnx2fc is a SCSI low level driver that interfaces with SCSI
midlayer, libfc, libfcoe, cnic modules.  bnx2fc driver uses services
of libfc for slow path operations such as FIP and fabric
discovery. The fast path IO perations are performed after offloading
the session information to the underlying FCoE firmware.
