Subject: [PATCH iwl-next v2 11/13] ixgbe: add FW API version check

Add E610 specific function checking whether the FW API version
is compatible with the driver expectations.

The major API version should be less than or equal to the expected
API version. If not the driver won't be fully operational.

Check the minor version, and if it is more than two versions lesser
or greater than the expected version, print a message indicating
that the NVM or driver should be updated respectively.
