dummy driver was extended with VF-related netdev APIs for testing SR-IOV-related software. netdevsim did not exist back then. Implement SR-IOV functionality in netdevsim. Notable difference is that since netdevsim has no module parameters, we will actually create a device with sriov_numvfs attribute for each netdev. The zero MAC address is accepted as some HW use it to mean any address is allowed. Link state is also now validated.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
