[PATCH 00/10] enic: SR-IOV V2 admin channel and MBOX protocol

[Satish Kharat via B4 Relay]

This series adds the admin channel infrastructure and mailbox (MBOX)
protocol needed for V2 SR-IOV support in the enic driver.

The V2 SR-IOV design uses a direct PF-VF communication channel built on
dedicated WQ/RQ/CQ hardware resources and an MSI-X interrupt.

Firmware capability and admin channel infrastructure (patches 1-4):
  - Probe-time firmware feature check for V2 SR-IOV support
  - Admin channel open/close, RQ buffer management, CQ service
    with MSI-X interrupt and NAPI polling

MBOX protocol and VF enable (patches 5-10):
  - MBOX message types, core send/receive, PF and VF handlers
  - V2 SR-IOV enable wiring with admin channel setup
  - V2 VF probe with admin channel and PF registration

This series depends on "enic: SR-IOV V2 resource discovery and VF
type detection" (Series 1), which has been accepted.
