The mlx4_en module now uses the new steering mechanism.
The RX packets are now steered through the MCG table instead
of Mac table for unicast, and default entry for multicast.
The feature is enabled through INIT_HCA

The same packet steering mechanism would be used both for IB and Ethernet,
Both multicasts and unicasts.
This commit prepares the general infrastructure for this.

The driver queries the FW for WOL support.
Ethtool get/set_wol is implemented accordingly.
Only magic packets are supported at the time.

<title>mlx4_core: Remove warning message about firmware bug</title>

The kernel warning message added in commit 58d74bb1d9f7 ("mlx4_core:
Workaround firmware bug in query dev cap") about mlx4 reporting the
wrong number of "blue flame registers" doesn't really help anyone, since
the firmware bug is known and fixed and the bug is pretty much harmless
to users.  So just get rid of the warning.

ConnectX firmware is supposed to report the number blue flame
registers per page as log2 of the value.  However, due to a firmware
bug, it reports actual number.  This patch works around this by
checking if the number of registers calculated fits within a page.  If
it does not, we use 8 registers per page.

The selftest includes 5 features:
1. Interrupt test: Executing commands and receiving command completion
   on all our interrupt vectors.
2. Link test: Verifying we are connected to valid link partner.
3. Speed test: Check that we negotiated link speed correctly.
4. Registers test: Activate HW health check command.
5. Loopback test: Send a packet on loopback interface and catch it on RX side.
