Added 'sriov_configure' to enable/disable virtual functions (VFs). Also added handling of mailbox messages from these VFs. Admin function (AF) is the only one with all priviliges to configure HW, alloc resources etc etc, PFs and it's VFs have to request AF via mbox for all their needs. But unlike PFs, their VFs cannot send a mbox request directly. A VF shares a mailbox region with it's parent PF, so VF sends a mailbox msg to PF and then PF forwards it to AF. Then AF after processing sends response to PF which it again forwards to VF. This patch adds support for this 'VF <=> PF <=> AF' mailbox communication. Signed-off-by:
