Anirudh Venkataramanan 9c20346b63 ice: Get switch config, scheduler config and device capabilities
This patch adds to the initialization flow by getting switch
configuration, scheduler configuration and device capabilities.

Switch configuration:
On boot, an L2 switch element is created in the firmware per physical
function. Each physical function is also mapped to a port, to which its
switch element is connected. In other words, this switch can be visualized
as an embedded vSwitch that can connect a physical function's virtual
station interfaces (VSIs) to the egress/ingress port. Egress/ingress
filters will be eventually created and applied on this switch element.
As part of the initialization flow, the driver gets configuration data
from this switch element and stores it.

Scheduler configuration:
The Tx scheduler is a subsystem responsible for setting and enforcing QoS.
As part of the initialization flow, the driver queries and stores the
default scheduler configuration for the given physical function.

Device capabilities:
As part of initialization, the driver has to determine what the device is
capable of (ex. max queues, VSIs, etc). This information is obtained from
the firmware and stored by the driver.

Anirudh Venkataramanan f31e4b6fe2 ice: Start hardware initialization
This patch implements multiple pieces of the initialization flow
as follows:

1) A reset is issued to ensure a clean device state, followed
   by initialization of admin queue interface.

2) Once the admin queue interface is up, clear the PF config
   and transition the device to non-PXE mode.

3) Get the NVM configuration stored in the device's non-volatile
   memory (NVM) using ice_init_nvm.

Anirudh Venkataramanan 7ec59eeac8 ice: Add support for control queues
A control queue is a hardware interface which is used by the driver
to interact with other subsystems (like firmware, PHY, etc.). It is
implemented as a producer-consumer ring. More specifically, an
"admin queue" is a type of control queue used to interact with the
firmware.

This patch introduces data structures and functions to initialize
and teardown control/admin queues. Once the admin queue is initialized,
the driver uses it to get the firmware version.

Anirudh Venkataramanan 837f08fdec ice: Add basic driver framework for Intel(R) E800 Series
This patch adds a basic driver framework for the Intel(R) E800 Ethernet
Series of network devices. There is no functionality right now other than
the ability to load.
