In this patch the SR-IOV code is segregated from the main bulk of
the bnx2x code. The CONFIG_BNX2X_SRIOV define is added to Broadcom's
Kconfig, and allows the elision of the building of all the SR-IOV
support code in the driver.
The define is dependant on the kernel CONFIG_PCI_IOV configuration
define.

When A PF determines that it may have to manage SRIOV VFs it
allocates a database for this purpose. The database is intended to
keep track of the VF state, the resources allocated for each VF
(queues, interrupt vectors, etc), the state of the VF's queues.
When the VF loads the database is updated accordingly.
When A VF closes the database is consulted to determine which
resources need to be released (close queues against device, reclaim
interrupt vectors, etc).

Add the 'acquire' request to VF <-> PF channel and use it at
VF probe. In the acquire request the VF driver lists the resources
it would like to have. In the response the PF either ratifies the
request, or denies it and supplies the maximum values supported.
The VF may then attempt another acquire request.
This patch adds the bnx2x_vfpf.c file which contains the
implementation of the VF to PF hardware channel.

Moves the drivers for Broadcom devices into
drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/ and the necessary Kconfig and Makefile
changes.
