Modern VFs can't run on old non-compatible as the fastpath HSI is
slightly changed - but as the HSI is actually very close [basically,
a single bit whose meaning flipped] this can be supported with small
modifications.
The major differences would be in:
- Recognizing that VF is running on top of a legacy PF.
- Returning some slowpath configurations that are no longer needed
on top of modern PFs, but would be required when working over
the legacy ones.

Before requesting the firmware to start Rx queues,
driver goes and sets the queue producer in the device to 0.
But while the producer is 32-bit, the driver currently clears 64 bits,
effectively zeroing an additional CID's producer as well.

Today, the VF is aware of its queues context-ids, and calculates the
doorbell address when opening its queues on its own.
The configuration of doorbells in HW can sometime in the future be changed
by the PF [hw has several configurable features that might affect doorbell
addresses, e.g., dpm support], this would break compatibility with older
VFs as their calculated doorbell addresses would be incorrect for such a
configuration.
In order to avoid such a backward compatibility failure, let the PF make
the calculation of the doorbell offset based on the context-id, and pass
that to the VF.

One of the goals of the vf's first message to the PF [acquire]
is to learn about the number of resources available to it [macs, vlans,
etc.]. This is done via negotiation - the VF requires a set of resources,
which the PF either approves or disaproves and sends a smaller set of
resources as alternative. In this later case, the VF is then expected to
either abort the probe or re-send the acquire message with less
required resources.
While this infrastructure exists since the initial submision of qed
SRIOV support, it's in fact completely inoperational - PF isn't really
looking into the resources the VF has asked for and is never going to
reply to the VF that it lacks resources.
This patch addresses this flow, fixing it and allowing the PF and VF
to actually agree on a set of resources.

Current driver require an exact match between VF and PF storm firmware;
Any difference would fail the VF acquire message, causing the VF probe
to be aborted.
While there's still dependencies between the two, the recent FW submission
has relaxed the match requirement - instead of an exact match, there's now
a 'fastpath' HSI major/minor scheme, where VFs and PFs that match in their
major number can co-exist even if their minor is different.
In order to accomadate this change some changes in the vf-start init flow
had to be made, as the VF start ramrod now has to be sent only after PF
learns which fastpath HSI its VF is requiring.

Device should be configured by default to VEB once VFs are active.
This changes the configuration of both PFs' and VFs' vports into enabling

Allows the PF to enforce the VF's mac.
i.e., by using `ip link ... vf <x> mac <value>'.
While a MAC is forced, PF would prevent the VF from configuring any other
MAC.

This adds support for PF control over the VF vlan configuration.
I.e., `ip link ... vf <x> vlan <vid>' should now be supported.
1. <vid> != 0 => VF receives [unknowingly] only traffic tagged by
<vid> and tags all outgoing traffic sent by VF with <vid>.
2. <vid> == 0 ==> Remove the pvid configuration, reverting to previous.

As the VF infrastructure is supposed to offer backward/forward
compatibility, the various types associated with VF<->PF communication
should be aligned across all various platforms that support IOV
on our family of adapters.
This adds a couple of currently missing values, specifically aligning
the enum for the various TLVs possible in the communication between them.
It then adds the PF implementation for some of those missing VF requests.
This support isn't really necessary for the Linux VF as those VFs aren't
requiring it [at least today], but are required by VFs running on other
OSes. LRO is an example of one such configuration.

Up to this point, VF and PF communication always originates from VF.
As a result, VF cannot be notified of any async changes, and specifically
cannot be informed of the current link state.
This introduces the bulletin board, the mechanism through which the PF
is going to communicate async notifications back to the VF. basically,
it's a well-defined structure agreed by both PF and VF which the VF would
continuously poll and into which the PF would DMA messages when needed.
[Bulletin board is actually allocated and communicated in previous patches
but never before used]
Based on the bulletin infrastructure, the VF can query its link status
and receive said async carrier changes.

This adds sufficient changes to allow VFs l2-configuration flows to work.
While the fastpath of the VF and the PF are meant to be exactly the same,
the configuration of the VF is done by the PF.
This diverges all VF-related configuration flows that originate from a VF,
making them pass through the VF->PF channel and adding sufficient logic
on the PF side to support them.

While previous patches have already added the necessary logic to probe
VFs as well as enabling them in the HW, this patch adds the ability to
support VF FLR & SRIOV disable.
It then wraps both flows together into the first IOV callback to be
provided to the protocol driver - `configure'. This would later to be used
to enable and disable SRIOV in the adapter.

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.
