This patch adds initial implementation of rx_pkt_burst() function for Rx.
bnxt_recv_pkts() is the top level function for doing Rx.
This patch also adds code to allocate rings in the ASIC.
For each Rx queue allocated in the PMD driver, a corresponding ring
in hardware will be created. Every time a frame is received a Rx ring
is selected based on the hardware configuration like RSS, MAC or VLAN,
COS and such. The hardware uses a completion ring to indicate the
availability of a packet.
This patch also brings in functions like bnxt_init_one_rx_ring()
bnxt_init_rx_ring_struct() which initializes various structures before
a Rx can begin.
bnxt_init_rxbds() initializes the Rx Buffer Descriptors while
bnxt_alloc_rx_data() allocates a buffer in the host to receive the
incoming packet.

Initial implementation of tx_pkt_burst for transmit.
bnxt_xmit_pkts() is the top level function that is called during Tx.
bnxt_handle_tx_cp() is used to check and process the Tx completions
generated for the Tx Buffer Descriptors sent by the hardware.
This patch also adds code to allocate rings in the hardware.
For each Tx queue allocated in the PMD driver, a corresponding ring
in hardware will be created. Every time a Tx request is initiated
via the bnxt_xmit_pkts() call, a Buffer Descriptor is created and
is sent to the hardware via the associated Tx ring.
On completing the Tx operation, the hardware will generates the status
in the form of a completion. This completion is processed by the
bnxt_handle_tx_cp() function.
Functions like bnxt_init_tx_ring_struct() and bnxt_init_one_tx_ring()
are used to initialize various members of the structure before
starting Tx operations.

Add the bnxt_stats_get_op() and bnxt_stats_reset_op() dev_ops to
get and reset statistics. It also brings in the associated HWRM calls
to handle the requests appropriately.
We also have the bnxt_free_stats() function which will be used in the
follow on patches to free the memory allocated by the driver for
statistics.
New HWRM calls:
bnxt_hwrm_stat_clear:

In this patch we are adding the bnxt_rx_queue_setup_op() and
bnxt_rx_queue_release_op() functions. These will be tied to the
rx_queue_setup and rx_queue_release dev_ops in a subsequent patch.
In these functions we allocate/free memory for the RX queues.
This still requires support to create a RX ring in the ASIC which
will be completed in a future commit. Each Rx queue created via the
rx_queue_setup dev_op will have an associated Rx ring in the hardware.
The Rx logic in the hardware picks a Rx ring for each Rx frame received
by the hardware depending on the properties like RSS, MAC and VLAN
settings configured in the hardware. These packets in the end arrive
on the Rx queue corresponding to the Rx ring in the hardware.
We are also adding some functions like bnxt_mq_rx_configure()
bnxt_free_rx_mbufs() and bnxt_free_rxq_stats() which will be used in
subsequent patches.
We are also adding hwrm_vnic_rss_cfg_* structures, which will be used
in subsequent patches to enable RSS configuration.

Add the L2 filter structure and the alloc/init/free functions for
dealing with them.
A filter is used to identify traffic that contains a matching set of
parameters like unicast or broadcast MAC address or a VLAN tag amongst
other things which then allows the ASIC to direct the incoming traffic
to an appropriate VNIC or Rx ring.
New HWRM calls:
bnxt_hwrm_clear_filter:

bnxt_hwrm_set_filter

Structures, macros, and functions for working with completion rings
in the driver.
Completion Ring is used by the Ethernet controller to provide the
status of transmitted & received packets, report errors, report
status changes to the host software, and inter-function forwarding
requests. In addition to the generic ring features, a completion ring
can have a statistics context that has statistics periodically DMAed
to host memory, along with a consumer index.
bnxt_handle_async_event() handles completions not related to a specific
transmit or receive ring such as link status changes which arrive on
the default completion ring.
Other physical or virtual functions on the same device may send an HWRM
command forward request. In this case, we will pass it through
unvalidated. In the future, we will be able to have the PF monitor and
control VF access to the HWRM interface if needed.

Start adding support to use the HWRM API.
Hardware Resource Manager or HWRM in short, is a set of API provided
by the firmware running in the ASIC to manage the various resources.
Initial commit just performs necessary HWRM queries for init, then
fails as before.
Now that struct bnxt is non-zero size, we can set dev_private_size
correctly.
The used HWRM calls so far:
bnxt_hwrm_func_qcaps:
This command returns capabilities of a function.
bnxt_hwrm_ver_get:
This function is called by a driver to determine the HWRM
interface version supported by the HWRM firmware, the
version of HWRM firmware implementation, the name of HWRM
firmware, the versions of other embedded firmwares, and
the names of other embedded firmwares, etc. Gets the
firmware version and interface specifications. Returns
an error if the firmware on the device is not supported
by the driver and ensures the response space is large
enough for the largest possible response.
bnxt_hwrm_queue_qportcfg:
This function is called by a driver to query queue
configuration of a port.
