This patch creates a function that handles sub-CRQ IRQ creation
separately from sub-CRQ initialization. Another function is then needed
to release sub-CRQ resources prior to sub-CRQ IRQ creation.
These additions allow the driver probe function to be simplified,
specifically during the VNIC Server login process. A timeout is also
included while waiting for completion of the login process in case
the VNIC Server is not available or some other error occurs.

IRQ mappings were not being properly disposed when releasing sub-CRQ's.

Since ibmvnic uses multiple tx queues, start and stop all queues when
opening and closing devices.

Since we will remove items off the list using list_del() we need
to use a safe version of the list_for_each() macro aptly named
list_for_each_safe().

Enables the use of multiple transmit and receive scrqs allowing the ibmvnic
driver to take advantage of multiqueue functionality. To achieve this, the
driver must implement the process of negotiating the maximum number of
queues allowed by the server. Initially, the driver will attempt to login
with the maximum number of tx and rx queues supported by the server. If
the server fails to allocate the requested number of scrqs, it will return
partial success in the login response. In this case, we must reinitiate
the login process from the request capabilities stage and attempt to login
requesting fewer scrqs.

Allow the VNIC driver to provide descriptors containing
L2/L3/L4 headers to firmware. This feature is needed
for greater hardware compatibility and enablement of checksum
and TCP offloading features.
A new function is included for the hypervisor call,
H_SEND_SUBCRQ_INDIRECT, allowing a DMA-mapped array of SCRQ
descriptor elements to be sent to the VNIC server.
These additions will help fully enable checksum offloading as
well as other features as they are included later.

The ibmvnic_capability struct was defined incorrectly. The last two
elements of the struct are in the wrong order. In addition, the number
element should be 64-bit. Byteswapping functions are updated
as well.

This is a new device driver for a high performance SR-IOV assisted virtual
network for IBM System p and IBM System i systems. The SR-IOV VF will be
attached to the VIOS partition and mapped to the Linux client via the
hypervisor's VNIC protocol that this driver implements.
This driver is able to perform basic tx and rx, new features
and improvements will be added as they are being developed and tested.
