doc: refer PMD compile/test section from bnx2x guide

Refer the section which explains driver compilation and running of
testpmd in Linux, instead of describing it in driver documentation.

Sample Application Notes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This section demonstrates how to launch ``testpmd`` with QLogic 578xx
devices managed by ``librte_pmd_bnx2x`` in Linux operating system.
#. Request huge pages:
.. code-block:: console
echo 1024 > /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages/nr_hugepages
#. Load ``igb_uio`` or ``vfio-pci`` driver:
.. code-block:: console
insmod ./x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/kmod/igb_uio.ko
or
.. code-block:: console
modprobe vfio-pci
#. Bind the QLogic adapters to ``igb_uio`` or ``vfio-pci`` loaded in the
previous step::
./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --bind igb_uio 0000:84:00.0 0000:84:00.1
or
Setup VFIO permissions for regular users and then bind to ``vfio-pci``:
.. code-block:: console
sudo chmod a+x /dev/vfio
sudo chmod 0666 /dev/vfio/*
./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --bind vfio-pci 0000:84:00.0 0000:84:00.1
#. Start ``testpmd`` with basic parameters:
.. code-block:: console
./x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/app/testpmd -l 0-3 -n 4 -- -i
Example output:
.. code-block:: console

The VF devices may be passed through to the guest VM using virt-manager or
