Subject: [next-queue v4 PATCH 0/7]i40e: Add VF Port Representator support for SR-IOV VFs 

This patchset is against dev-queue branch of Jeff Kirsher's next-queue git tree.

- Patch 1 introduces devlink interface to get/set the mode of SRIOV switch.
- Patch 2 adds support to create VF port representor(VFPR) netdevs associated
  with SR-IOV VFs that can be used to control/configure VFs from PF name space.
- Patch 3 enables syncing link state between VFs and VFPRs.
- Patch 4 adds a new type to metadata_dst to allow passing VF id to lower device.
- Patch 5 adds TX and RX support to VFPR netdevs.
- Patch 6 enables HW and SW VFPR statistics to be exposed via netlink on VFPR
  netdevs.
- Patch 7 adds support to get switch id and port number for VFPR netdevs.

v4:
- Make VFPR ndo_get_stats64 a void function to match with recent upstream
  change.
v3:
- misc. error handling fixes suggested by Scott Peterson
- introduce switchdev_ops and add support to get switch id and port no.
  for VFPR netdevs. Suggested by Or Gerlitz
v2:
- handle i40e_alloc_vfpr_netdev() failures.
- minor comment/commit msg updates.
