This adds the qed VFs for the first time -
The vfs are limited functions, with a very different PCI bar structure
[when compared with PFs] to better impose the related security demands
associated with them.
This patch includes the logic neccesary to allow VFs to successfully probe
[without actually adding the ability to enable iov].
This includes diverging all the flows that would occur as part of the pci
probe of the driver, preventing VF from accessing registers/memories it
can't and instead utilize the VF->PF channel to query the PF for needed
information.

Communication between VF and PF is based on a dedicated HW channel;
VF will prepare a messge, and by signaling the HW the PF would get a
notification of that message existance. The PF would then copy the
message, process it and DMA an answer back to the VF as a response.
The messages themselves are TLV-based - allowing easier backward/forward
compatibility.
This patch adds the infrastructure of the channel on the PF side -
starting with the arrival of the notification and ending with DMAing
the response back to the VF.
It also adds a dummy-response as reference, as it only lays the
groundwork of the communication; it doesn't really add support of any
actual messages.

FW hsi contains regpairs, mostly for 64-bit address representations.
Since same paradigm is applied each time a regpair is filled, this
introduces a new utility macro for setting such regpairs.

Initial driver submission used GFP_ATOMIC almost inclusively when
allocating memory. We now remedy this point, using GFP_KERNEL where
it's possible.

Concurrent non-blocking slowpath ramrods can be completed
out-of-order on the completion chain. Recycling completed elements,
while previously sent elements are still completion pending,
can lead to overriding of active elements on the chain. Furthermore,
sending pending slowpath ramrods currently lacks the update of the
chain element physical pointer.
This patch:
* Ensures that ramrods are sent to the FW with
consecutive echo values.
* Handles out-of-order completions by freeing only first
successive completed entries.
* Updates the chain element physical pointer when copying
a pending element into a free element for sending.

This patch adds to the qed the support to configure various L2 elements,
such as channels and basic filtering conditions.
It also enhances its public API to allow qede to later utilize this
functionality.

The Qlogic Everest Driver is the backend module for the QL4xxx ethernet
products by Qlogic.
This module serves two main purposes:
1. It's responsible to contain all the common code that will be shared
between the various drivers that would be used with said line of
products. Flows such as chip initialization and de-initialization
fall under this category.
2. It would abstract the protocol-specific HW & FW components, allowing
the protocol drivers to have a clean APIs which is detached in its
slowpath configuration from the actual HSI.
This adds a very basic module without any protocol-specific bits.
I.e., this adds a basic implementation that almost entirely falls under
the first category.
