Jingjing Wu 5135f3ca49 i40e: enable DCB in VMDQ VSIs
Previously, DCB(Data Center Bridging) is only enabled on PF,
queue mapping and BW configuration is only done on PF.
This patch enables DCB for VMDQ VSIs(Virtual Station Interfaces)
by following steps:
  1. Take BW and ETS(Enhanced Transmission Selection)
     configuration on VEB(Virtual Ethernet Bridge).
  2. Take BW and ETS configuration on VMDQ VSIs.
  3. Update TC(Traffic Class) and queues mapping on VMDQ VSIs.
To enable DCB on VMDQ, the number of TCs should not be larger than
the number of queues in VMDQ pools, and the number of queues per
VMDQ pool is specified by CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_I40E_QUEUE_NUM_PER_VM
in config/common_* file.
