IB/hfi1: Virtual Network Interface Controller (VNIC) HW support
HFI1 HW specific support for VNIC functionality. Dynamically allocate a set of contexts for VNIC when the first vnic port is instantiated. Allocate VNIC contexts from user contexts pool and return them back to the same pool while freeing up. Set aside enough MSI-X interrupts for VNIC contexts and assign them when the contexts are allocated. On the receive side, use an RSM rule to spread TCP/UDP streams among VNIC contexts.
