This patch advances the qed* drivers into using the newer firmware -
This solves several firmware bugs, mostly related [but not limited to]
various init/deinit issues in various offloaded protocols.
It also introduces a major 4-Cached SGE change in firmware, which can be
seen in the storage drivers' changes.
In addition, this firmware is required for supporting the new QL41xxx
series of adapters; While this patch doesn't add the actual support,
the firmware contains the necessary initialization & firmware logic to
operate such adapters [actual support would be added later on].

Since the submission of the qedr driver, there's inconsistency
in the licensing of the various qed/qede files - some are GPLv2
and some are dual-license.
Since qedr requires dual-license and it's dependent on both,
we're updating the licensing of all qed/qede source files.

This new firmware for the qed* adpaters fixes several issues:
- Better blocking of malicious VFs.
- After FLR, Tx-switching [internal routing] of packets might
be incorrect.
- Deletion of unicast MAC filters would sometime have side-effect
of corrupting the MAC filters configred for a device.
It also contains fixes for future qed* drivers that *hopefully* would be
sent for review in the near future.
In addition, it would allow driver some new functionality, including:
- Allowing PF/VF driver compaitibility with old drivers [running
pre-8.10.5.0 firmware].
- Better debug facilities.
This would also bump the qed* driver versions to 8.10.9.20.

This adds the qed portion of the RoCE & iSCSI firmware HSI,
as well as adding several new common HSI files which would be required
by both qed and qed* protocols.
