There are possible HW configurations in which PFs will have SR-IOV capability
but will have Max VFs set to 0 - this happens when there are Multi-Function
devices where the VFs are allocated to only some of the PFs.
DMAE is configured to support VFs only if the configuring PF has supported VFs.
In case the first PF to be loaded will be one without supported VFs, it will
not configure DMAE to the VF-supporting mode. When VFs of other PFs will be
loaded later on, they will not be able to communicate with their PF.
This changes the requirement for configuring DMAE for VF-supporting mode;
If the device has SR-IOV capabilities there must be some PF that has
max supported VFs > 0, thus it will configure the DMAE for supporting VFs.

Since SR-IOV can be activated dynamically and iproute2 can be called
asynchronously, the various callbacks need a robust sanity check before
attempting to access the SR-IOV database and members since there are numerous
states in which it can find the driver (e.g., PF is down, sriov was not enabled
yet, VF is down, etc.).
In many of the states the callback result will be null pointer dereference.

After notification that DCBX configuration has ended arrived to the driver,
the driver configured the FW/HW in sleepless context.
As a result, it was possible to reach a race (mostly with CNIC registration)
in which the configuration will return a timeout, failing to set the DCBX
results correctly.
This patch moves the configuration following the DCBX end into the slowpath
RTNL task (i.e., sleepless context protected by the RTNL lock), allowing the
configuration to cope with such races.

Since commit 3deb816 "bnx2x: Add a periodic task for link PHY events"
link state changes can be detected not only via the attention flow but also
from the periodic task.
If the link state will change in such a manner (i.e., via the periodic task),
dropless flow-control will not be configured.
This patch remedies the issue, adding the missing configuration to all required
flows.

bnx2x did not set dump->version in its .get_dump_flag() method.
Let's set it to BNX2X_DUMP_VERSION. It's not a particularly nice

There is no need to initialize the dump data with zeros.
data is allocated with vzalloc, so it's already zero-filled.
More importantly, the memset is harmful, because dump->len (the length
requested by userspace) can be bigger than the allocated buffer (whose
size is determined by asking the driver's .get_dump_flag method).

It was recently found out that GSO on 57710/57711 was broken, due to packets
being sent without a valid IP checksum.
Commit 057cf65 "bnx2x: Fix GSO for 57710/57711 chips" partially fixed this
issue, but failed to set the correct IP checksum when receiving GSO packets
via bridges, as such packets enter bnx2x_tx_split() and the FW flags needed
to calculate IP checksum were erroneously set in the incorrect
buffer descriptor.
This patch re-enables GSO in said scenario for 57710/57711 chips.

This changes the PCI power management scheme of the bnx2x driver to be similar
to those of most network drivers - the driver will now changes the power state
into D3hot whenever the driver will be removed, instead of whenever an
interface is unloaded.
This change enables the driver to access its eeprom via ethtool callbacks
even when interfaces are unloaded (such access requires the function to be
in D0active).

Implement the PCI shutdown callback to support un-orderly shutdown, i.e.,
shutdowns in which the remove callback will not be called.
Due to the lack of this functionality, when an un-orderly shutdown occurred,
it was possible for wake-on-lan to remain disabled.
This is now fixed as the callback introduces the correct place in which
`system_state' can be queried and wake-on-lan be configured accordingly.

During PCIe advanced error recovery, the secondary bus reset will cause FW
to reset; This will cause the shared memory between it and the driver to be
invalidated.
During the driver's recovery flow, the driver should not make any assumption
on the validity of that memory and instead re-initialize it.
This also removes a redundant re-initialization of a previously
initialized mutex.

As part of the previous unload flow, probed devices will reset the chip
in order to clean the remains of the UNDI driver.
As a result, it's possible for the FW to toggle the link.
This toggling can prove fatal, as long periods without link can cause the
filesystem mount to fail as the storage protocol timeouts. This has been
observed against particular switches with long link re-establishment time.
This patch informs FW during the reset period that the link should not
be toggled - the FW will keep it alive until some interface will load and claim
the link as its own.

`bnx2x: use FW 7.8.17', the bnx2x driver no longer requests the FW to perform
IP checksums for IPv4 packets.
This behaviour needs to be revised for 57710/57711 chips -
when using GSO, if the driver will not set the IP checksum flag then packets
will be transmitted by the chip without a valid IP checksum, resulting in
a drop of all such packets on the receiver-side.

A reload makes the ethernet port unresponsive for about 5 seconds.
