====================
Introduce ENETC ethernet drivers

ENETC is a multi-port virtualized Ethernet controller supporting GbE
designs and Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) functionality.
ENETC is operating as an SR-IOV multi-PF capable Root Complex Integrated
Endpoint (RCIE). As such, it contains multiple physical (PF) and virtual
(VF) PCIe functions, discoverable by standard PCI Express.

The patch series adds basic enablement for these otherwise standard
buffer descriptor (BD) ring based ethernet devices (PCIe PFs and VFs),
currently included in the 64-bit dual ARMv8 processors LS1028A SoC.
The driver is portable to 32-bit designs, and it's independent of CPU
endianness.

TODO list:
* IEEE 1588 PTP support;
* TSN support;
* MDIO support and VF link management;
* power management support;
* flow control support;
* TC offloading with h/w MQPRIO;
* interrupt coalescing, configurable BD ring sizes, and other usual
config options if missing.

enetc: Add vf to pf messaging support

VSIs (VFs) may send a message to the PSI (PF) for general notification
or to gain access to hardware resources which requires host inspection.
These messages may vary in size and are handled as a partition copy
between two memory regions owned by the respective participants.
The PSI will respond with fail or success and a 16-bit message code.
The patch implements the vf to pf messaging mechanism above and, as the
first application making use of this support, it enables the VF to
configure its own primary MAC address.

enetc: Introduce basic PF and VF ENETC ethernet drivers

ENETC is a multi-port virtualized Ethernet controller supporting GbE
designs and Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) functionality.
ENETC is operating as an SR-IOV multi-PF capable Root Complex Integrated
Endpoint (RCIE). As such, it contains multiple physical (PF) and
virtual (VF) PCIe functions, discoverable by standard PCI Express.

Introduce basic PF and VF ENETC ethernet drivers. The PF has access to
the ENETC Port registers and resources and makes the required privileged
configurations for the underlying VF devices. Common functionality is
controlled through so called System Interface (SI) register blocks, PFs
and VFs own a SI each. Though SI register blocks are almost identical,
there are a few privileged SI level controls that are accessible only to
PFs, and so the distinction is made between PF SIs (PSI) and VF SIs (VSI).
As such, the bulk of the code, including datapath processing, basic h/w
offload support and generic pci related configuration, is shared between
the 2 drivers and is factored out in common source files (i.e. enetc.c).

Major functionalities included (for both drivers):
MSI-X support for Rx and Tx processing, assignment of Rx/Tx BD ring pairs
to MSI-X entries, multi-queue support, Rx S/G (Rx frame fragmentation) and
jumbo frame (up to 9600B) support, Rx paged allocation and reuse, Tx S/G
support (NETIF_F_SG), Rx and Tx checksum offload, PF MAC filtering and
initial control ring support, VLAN extraction/ insertion, PF Rx VLAN
CTAG filtering, VF mac address config support, VF VLAN isolation support,
etc.
