Jakub Kicinski 21537bc701 nfp: don't clutter init code passing fw_ver around
Reading fw version from the BAR is trivial.  Don't pass it around
through layers of init functions, simply read it again where needed.

This commit has the side effect of each vNIC having the exact NFD
version from its own control memory, rather than all data vNICs
assuming the version of the first one.  This should not result in
user-visible changes, though.  Capabilities of data vNICs of trival
apps are identical.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
