Add the netdev ops for managing VFs. Since most of the
management work happens in the NIC firmware, the driver becomes
mostly a pass-through for the network stack commands that want
to control and configure the VFs.
We also tweak ionic_station_set() a little to allow for
the VFs that start off with a zero'd mac address.

Even out Rx performance across MTU sizes by changing from full
skb allocations to page-based frag allocations. The device
supports a form of scatter-gather in the Rx path, so we can
set up a number of pages for each descriptor, all of which are
easier to alloc and pass around than the standard kzalloc'd
buffer. An skb is wrapped around the pages while processing
the received packets, and pages are recycled as needed, or
left alone if they weren't used in the Rx.

Most of our firmware has a heartbeat feature that the driver
can watch for to see if the FW is still alive and likely to
answer a dev_cmd or AdminQ request.

Set up the initial NDO structure and callbacks for netdev
to use, and register the netdev. This will allow us to do
a few basic operations on the device, but no traffic yet.

Most of the NIC configuration happens through the AdminQ message
queue. NAPI is used for basic interrupt handling and message
queue management. These routines are set up to be shared among
different types of queues when used in slow-path handling.

The ionic interrupt model is based on interrupt control blocks
accessed through the PCI BAR. Doorbell registers are used by
the driver to signal to the NIC that requests are waiting on
the message queues. Interrupts are used by the NIC to signal
to the driver that answers are waiting on the completion queues.

The LIF is the Logical Interface, which represents the external
connections. The NIC can multiplex many LIFs to a single port,
but in most setups, LIF0 is the primary control for the port.

The port management commands apply to the physical port
associated with the PCI device, which might be shared among
several logical interfaces.

The ionic device has a small set of PCI registers, including a
device control and data space, and a large set of message
commands.
Also adds new DEVLINK_INFO_VERSION_GENERIC tags for
ASIC_ID, ASIC_REV, and FW.
