Rather than #define-ing common code function calls to OS-dependent
ones, make the osdep versions match the common code expectations,
adjust the FreeBSD specific code to use those, and remove the
#defines.
In the FreeBSD specific code, use "i40e_mem_reserved" for the
now expected but unused argument to i40e_allocate_dma_mem().

with mbufs normally called *m in one place), rename the function
arguments to "mem".
This is a non-functional change.

- 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!
