This patch adds debugfs entry to show EP status information.
You can get each EP's status information like the following:

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/fjes/fjes.0/status

EPID    STATUS           SAME_ZONE        CONNECTED
ep0     shared           Y                Y

ep2     unshared         N                N
ep3     unshared         N                N
ep4     unshared         N                N

This patch adds implementation of supporting
ethtool -w and -W for fjes driver.

You can enable and disable firmware debug mode by
using ethtool -W, and also retrieve firmware
activity information by using ethtool -w.

This is useful for debugging.

EP related statistics can be retrieved.

The following statistics can be displayed via ethtool -S:

The field "owner" is set by core. Thus delete an extra initialisation.

<title>net: fjes: fjes_main: Remove create_workqueue</title>

alloc_workqueue replaces deprecated create_workqueue().

The workqueue adapter-&gt;txrx_wq has workitem
&amp;adapter-&gt;raise_intr_rxdata_task per adapter. Extended Socket Network
Device is shared memory based, so someone's transmission denotes other's
reception.  raise_intr_rxdata_task raises interruption of receivers from
the sender in order to notify receivers.

The workqueue adapter-&gt;control_wq has workitem
&amp;adapter-&gt;interrupt_watch_task per adapter. interrupt_watch_task is used
to prevent delay of interrupts.

Dedicated workqueues have been used in both cases since the workitems
on the workqueues are involved in normal device operation and require
forward progress under memory pressure.

max_active has been set to 0 since there is no need for throttling
the number of active work items.

Since network devices  may be used for memory reclaim,
WQ_MEM_RECLAIM has been set to guarantee forward progress.
