- add the hardware software interface(HSI) changes
- add register definitions
These will be required for 8.10.9.0 FW upgrade.

The base driver is the backend module for the QLogic FastLinQ QL4xxxx
25G/40G CNA family of adapters as well as their virtual functions (VF)
in SR-IOV context.
The purpose of the base module is to:
- provide all the common code that will be shared between the various
drivers that would be used with said line of products. Flows such as
chip initialization and de-initialization fall under this category.
- abstract the protocol-specific HW & FW components, allowing the
protocol drivers to have clean APIs, which are detached in its
slowpath configuration from the actual Hardware Software Interface(HSI).
This patch adds a base module without any protocol-specific bits.
I.e., this adds a basic implementation that almost entirely falls under
the first category.
