bnx2x: new features patch series

This patch series adds/fixes several new features in the bnx2x driver -
it adds support for loading the bnx2x over an UNDI running on a Multi-function
device, adds missing bits for PCIe AER support and enables VFs to properly
configure multicast filters
(In addition, it also contains some small improvements in driver behaviour).

Please consider applying these patches to `net-next'.

Changes from previous versions
------------------------------
  v2:
     - Fixed comment typo in patch 4 (propogate --> propagate)

This patch adds the necessary support for configuring (and removing) multicast
filters to VFs.

It's possible for VMs with older versions of bnx2x to run over a hypervisor
with latest driver. If a VF in such a VM does not support RSS configuration,
the PF driver in the hypervisor will print an error message to system logs.

This changes the error message into a debug message, as this is very likely
a false alarm for an older VF (i.e., VF manages to work properly; PF simply
cannot configure the additional queues for it).

There's a known issue that using `ethtool -e' flips the endianity of the
written data, i.e., using `ethtool -E' to dump eeprom image and than using
`ethtool -e' to re-write that same image will result in an image where
the data has the opposite endianity.
Sadly, this cannot be fixed as there are already various tools deployed
based on the endianity of the eeprom read/write.
Instead, a comment is added to the code to help explain why this is un-fixable.

This adds the ability for bnx2x to load after UNDI is used in the
preboot environment on a multi-function interface which is not the first
interface of a given device.
Notice a side-effect is that the order by which the functions are probed and
thus interfaces appear might change, as this patch utilizes the EPROBE_DEFER
return value (and mechanism).

====================
slight optimization of addr compare for some modules

Joe Perches add ether_addr_equal_unaligned to test if
possibly unaligned to u16 Ethernet addresses are equal.

If CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS is set, this uses
the slightly faster generic routine ether_addr_equal,
otherwise this uses memcmp.

So I use the recently added and possibly more efficient
ether_addr_equal_unaligned to instead of memcmp for slight
optimization.

v2: Because a lot of places are already using 16b aligned MAC
    address for both operands, so use the ether_addr_equal to
    instead of ether_addr_equal_unaligned.Thanks for Joe, Alex
    and Antonio's opinions.
    Also remove the patch for bridge.

v3: According Joe's suggestion, the patch
    (net: slight optimization of addr compare for some modules)
    should be broken into several patches, and it will be good
    to review for maintainers. So I will send rest of the patches
    for first step, and next step, I will seperate the netdev patch
    and send them by another patchset for net-next.
    also fix some changelog.

v3.5 Change some style for patch 8 and patch 13. Thanks for
     Sergei's suggestion.

When adding a new vxlan device to an "underlying carrier" (here:
dst->remote_ifindex), the MTU size assigned to the vxlan device
is the MTU at setup time of the carrier - needed headroom, when
adding a vxlan device w/o explicit carrier, then it defaults
to 1500.

In case of an explicit carrier that supports jumbo frames, we
currently cannot change vxlan MTU via ip(8) to > 1500 in
post-setup time, as vxlan driver uses eth_change_mtu() as default
method for manually setting MTU.

Hence, use a custom implementation that only falls back to
eth_change_mtu() in case we didn't use a dev parameter on device
setup time, and otherwise allow a max MTU setting of the carrier
incl. adjustment for headroom.
