Since the uio_pci_generic module requires that the device to which it is

with VF devices. Add a note to the GSG doc to document this fact, and

CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_MLX4_COMPAT_VMWARE has no effect since this option enables
MLX4_PMD_COMPAT_VMWARE. This macro is not used by the PMD which expects
MLX4_COMPAT_VMWARE instead.
Because this option does not work and the related code is no longer useful
for VMware (as it actually supports the flow steering API), remove it
entirely.
