Peng Li 4671042f1e net: hns3: add match_id to check mailbox response from PF to VF
When VF need response from PF, VF will wait (1us - 1s) to receive
the response, or it will wait timeout and the VF action fails.
If VF do not receive response in 1st action because timeout,
the 2nd action may receive response for the 1st action, and get
incorrect response data.VF must reciveve the right response from
PF,or it will cause unexpected error.

This patch adds match_id to check mailbox response from PF to VF,
to make sure VF get the right response:
1. The message sent from VF was labelled with match_id which was a
unique 16-bit non-zero value.
2. The response sent from PF will label with match_id which got from
the request.
3. The VF uses the match_id to match request and response message.

This scheme depends on PF driver supports match_id, if PF driver doesn't
support then VF will uses the original scheme.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
