This patch includes slowpath configuration and fastpath changes
to support LRO and TSO. A bit of revamping is needed in order
to make use of existing packet classification schemes in Rx fastpath
and for SG element processing in Tx.

Add limited support for ntuple filter and flow director configuration.
The filtering is based on 4-tuples viz src-ip, dst-ip, src-port,
dst-port. The mask fields, tcp_flags, flex masks, priority fields,
Rx queue drop etc are not supported.

A step toward having multi-Txq support on same queue-zone for VFs.
This change takes care of:
- VFs assume a single CID per-queue, where queue X receives CID X.
Switch to a model similar to that of PF - I.e., Use different CIDs
for Rx/Tx, and use mapping to acquire/release those. Each VF
currently will have 32 CIDs available for it [for its possible 16
Rx & 16 Tx queues].
- To retain the same interface for PFs/VFs when initializing queues,
the base driver would have to retain a unique number per-each queue
that would be communicated in some extended TLV [current TLV
interface allows the PF to send only the queue-id]. The new TLV isn't
part of the current change but base driver would now start adding
such unique keys internally to queue_cids. This would also force
us to start having alloc/setup/free for L2 [we've refrained from
doing so until now]
The limit would be no-more than 64 queues per qzone [This could be
changed if needed, but hopefully no one needs so many queues]
- In IOV, Add infrastructure for up to 64 qids per-qzone, although
at the moment hard-code '0' for Rx and '1' for Tx [Since VF still
isn't communicating via new TLV which index to associate with a
given queue in its queue-zone].

Optimize cache-line access in ecore_chain -
re-arrange fields so that fields that are needed for fastpath
[mostly produce/consume and their derivatives] are in the first cache
line, and the rest are in the second.
This is true for both PBL and NEXT_PTR kind of chains.
Advancing a page in a SINGLE_PAGE chain would still require the 2nd
cacheline as well, but afaik only SPQ uses it and so it isn't
considered as 'fastpath'.

L2 handler changes:
This is change to remove the queue-id/qzone difference for Tx queues.
It does that by mainly doing:
a. VFs queues are no longer determined by the SBs they're using.
Instead, the ecore-client needs to maintain those and choose the values
to be used by VF when initializing it.
b. Eliminate the HW-cid array in the hw-function.
To do that, have all the rx/tx functionality turn into 'handle' base -
when queue would be started the caller would get a (void*) handle,
which it would later use with ecore for configuring various
queue-related stop [update, close].

Allow only trusted VFs to be promisc/multi-promisc. The reasonable
thing is to use the 'trusted' node instead of simply allowing VFs to
become promiscuous.
