Adds 'sriov_configure' to enable/disable virtual functions (VFs). Also Initializes VF<=>PF mailbox IRQs, register handlers for processing these mailbox messages. Admin function (AF) handles resource allocation and configuration for PFs and their VFs. PFs request the AF directly, via mailboxes. Unlike PFs, VFs cannot send a mailbox request directly. A VF sends mailbox messages to its parent PF, with which it shares a mailbox region. The PF then forwards these messages to the AF. After handling the request, the AF sends a response back to the VF, through the PF. This patch adds support for this 'VF <=> PF <=> AF' mailbox communication.

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.
