====================
qed*: Add support for management firmware TLV request.
Management firmware (MFW) requires config and state information from
the driver. It queries this via TLV (type-length-value) request wherein
mfw specificies the list of required TLVs. Driver fills the TLV data
and responds back to MFW.
This patch series adds qed/qede/qedf/qedi driver implementation for
supporting the TLV queries from MFW.
Changes from previous versions:
-------------------------------
v2: Split patch (2) into multiple simpler patches.
v2: Update qed_tlv_parsed_buf->p_val datatype to void pointer to avoid
bunch of unnecessary typecasts.
Please consider applying this series to "net-next".
