This is the FW blob and the relevant definitions without any logic. It
also contains the minimal mandatory code changes to work with this FW
but it does not contain enabling of the new features that this FW
provides.
This FW is needed for:
- More efficient multi-queue
- per queue statistics
- Big-endian issue with MSI
- Improved pause response

FW Internal Memory structure
The FW uses data structures on the chip internal memory to aggregate the
connections when TPA is enabled. The driver was clearing the wrong offsets
and therefore one function could cause another function to loose packets.
Changing the initialization of the chip internal memory to clear only the
relevant memory for each function which is being loaded

This new initialization code supports the 57711 HW. It also supports
the emulation and FPGA for the 57711 and 57710 initializations values
(very small amount of code which is very helpful in the lab - less
than 30 lines).
The initialization is done via DMAE after the DMAE block is ready -
before it is ready, some of the initialization is done via PCI
configuration transactions (referred to as indirect write). A mutex
to protect the DMAE from being overlapped was added. There are few
new registers which needs to be initialized by SW - the full comment
for those registers is added to the register file. A place holder for
the 57711 (referred to as E1H) microcode was added- the microcode
itself is too big and it is split over the following 4 patches
