The New QED firmware contains several fixes, including:
- Wrong classification of packets in 4-port devices.
- Anti-spoof interoperability with encapsulated packets.
- Tx-switching of encapsulated packets.
It also slightly improves Tx performance of the device.
In addition, this firmware contains the necessary logic for
supporting iscsi & rdma, for which we plan on pushing protocol
drivers in the imminent future.

This patch adds relevant APIs needed to configure WFQ
(Weighted fair queueing) values for the vports. WFQ configuration
is used per vport basis when minimum bandwidth update/configuration
is notified to the PF by the management firmware.

This patch moves the qed* driver into utilizing the 8.7.3.0 FW.
This new FW is required for a lot of new SW features, including:
- Vlan filtering offload
- Encapsulation offload support
- HW ingress aggregations
As well as paving the way for the possibility of adding storage protocols
in the future.
V2:
- Fix kbuild test robot error/warnings.

The Qlogic Everest Driver is the backend module for the QL4xxx ethernet
products by Qlogic.
This module serves two main purposes:
1. It's responsible to contain all the common code that will be shared
between the various drivers that would be used with said line of
products. Flows such as chip initialization and de-initialization
fall under this category.
2. It would abstract the protocol-specific HW & FW components, allowing
the protocol drivers to have a clean APIs which is detached in its
slowpath configuration from the actual HSI.
This adds a very basic module without any protocol-specific bits.
I.e., this adds a basic implementation that almost entirely falls under
the first category.
