bnxt_en: Add auxiliary driver support

Browse source 
Add auxiliary driver support.
An auxiliary device will be created if the hardware indicates
support for RDMA.
The bnxt_ulp_probe() function has been removed and a new
bnxt_rdma_aux_device_add() function has been added.
The bnxt_free_msix_vecs() and bnxt_req_msix_vecs() will now hold
the RTNL lock when they call the bnxt_close_nic()and bnxt_open_nic()
since the device close and open need to be protected under RTNL lock.
The operations between the bnxt_en and bnxt_re will be protected
using the en_ops_lock.
This will be used by the bnxt_re driver in a follow-on patch
to create ROCE interfaces.
