code update, with supporting changes in the CORE. Changes for the extended
media types, VF driver has virtual channel protocol changes, and some
register use corrections. This software change should be coordinated with
Firmware updates to your hardware, contact your support channels for that.

Leaf drivers should not import the PCI bus interface to add IOV handling.
Instead, move the IOV client methods to a separate kobj interface.

if_ixl to version 1.3.0, if_ixlv to version 1.2.0
- Major change in both drivers is to add RSS support
- In ixl fix some interface speed related issues, dual
speed was not changing correctly, KR/X media was not
displaying correctly (this has a workaround until a
more robust media handling is in place)
- Add a warning when using Dell NPAR and the speed is
less than 10G
- Wrap a queue hung message in IXL_DEBUG, as it is non-fatal,
and without tuning can display excessively
MFC after: 1 week
- It was decided to change the driver name to if_ixl for FreeBSD
- This release adds the VF Driver to the tree, it can be built into
the kernel or as the if_ixlv module
- The VF driver is independent for the first time, this will be
desireable when full SRIOV capability is added to the OS.
- Thanks to my new coworker Eric Joyner for his superb work in
both the core and vf driver code.
Enjoy everyone!
