IB/mlx5: Implement callbacks for manipulating VFs

Browse source

Implement the IB defined callbacks used to manipulate the policy for the
link state, set GUIDs or get statistics information. This functionality
is added into a new file that will be used to add any SRIOV related
functionality to the mlx5 IB layer.

The following callbacks have been added:

mlx5_ib_get_vf_config
mlx5_ib_set_vf_link_state
mlx5_ib_get_vf_stats
mlx5_ib_set_vf_guid

In addition, publish whether this device is based on a virtual function.

In mlx5 supported devices, virtual functions are implemented as vHCAs.
vHCAs have their own QP number space so it is possible that two vHCAs
will use a QP with the same number at the same time.
