Currently the mlx4 drivers don't have the necessary callbacks to
implement EEH errors detection and recovery, so the PCI layer uses the
probe and remove callbacks to try to recover the device after an error on
the bus. However, these callbacks have race conditions with the internal
catastrophic error recovery functions, which will also detect the error
and this can cause the system to crash if both EEH and catas functions
try to reset the device.
This patch adds the necessary error recovery callbacks and makes sure
that the internal catastrophic error functions will not try to reset the
device in such scenarios. It also adds some calls to
pci_channel_offline() to suppress reads/writes on the bus when the slot
cannot accept I/O operations so we prevent unnecessary accesses to the
bus and speed up the device removal.

When running in SRIOV mode, driver should not automatically start/stop
the mlx4_core upon sensing an HCA internal error -- doing this disables/enables
sriov, which will cause the hypervisor to hang if there are running VMs with
attached VFs.
In addition, on VMs the catas process should not run at all, since the HCA
error buffer is not available to VMs in the BARs.

The device.h header was including module.h, making it present for
most of these drivers. But we want to clean that up. Call out the
include of module.h in the modular network drivers.

Moves the Mellanox driver into drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/ and
make the necessary Kconfig and Makefile changes.
