Merge branch 'qed-load-unload-mfw'
Yuval Mintz says:
====================
qed: load/unload mfw series
This series correct the unload flow and greatly enhances its
initialization flow in regard to interactions between driver
and management firmware.
Patch #1 makes sure unloading is done under management-firmware's
'criticial section' protection.
Patches #2 - #4 move driver into using a newer scheme for loading
in regard to the MFW; This newer scheme would help cleaning the device
in case a previous instance has dirtied it [preboot, PDA, etc.].
Patches #5 - #6 let driver inform management-firmware on number of
resources which are dependent on the non-management firmware used.
Patch #7 then uses a new resource [BDQ] instead of some set value.
