Support for setting VF's corresponding BGX LMAC in internal
loopback mode. This mode can be used for verifying basic HW
functionality such as packet I/O, RX checksum validation,
CQ/RBDR interrupts, stats e.t.c. Useful when DUT has no external
network connectivity.
'loopback' mode can be enabled or disabled via ethtool.
Note: This feature is not supported when no of VFs enabled are
morethan no of physical interfaces i.e active BGX LMACs

This patch adds support for handling multiple qsets assigned to a
single VF. There by increasing no of queues from earlier 8 to max
no of CPUs in the system i.e 48 queues on a single node and 96 on
dual node system. User doesn't have option to assign which Qsets/VFs
to be merged. Upon request from VF, PF assigns next free Qsets as
secondary qsets. To maintain current behavior no of queues is kept
to 8 by default which can be increased via ethtool.
If user wants to unbind NICVF driver from a secondary Qset then it
should be done after tearing down primary VF's interface.

This patch configures HW to strip 802.1Q header if found in a
receiving packet. The stripped VLAN ID and TCI information is
passed on to software via CQE_RX. Also sets netdev's 'vlan_features'
so that other HW offload features can be used for tagged packets.
This offload feature can be enabled or disabled via ethtool.
Network stack normally ignores RPS for 802.1Q packets and hence low
throughput. With this offload enabled throughput for tagged packets
will be almost same as normal packets.
Note: This patch doesn't enable HW VLAN insertion for transmit packets.

There are duplicate NODE_ID macro definitions. Move all of them to
nic.h for usage in nic and bgx driver and introduce nic_get_node_id()
helper function.
This patch also fixes 64bit mask which should have been ULL by
reworking the node calculation.
