Add registers and definitions required for applying DCB related hardware configuration. Add functions responsible for calculating and setting proper hardware configuration values for software based DCB functionality. Add function responsible for invoking Admin Queue command, which results in applying new DCB configuration to the hardware. Update copyright dates as appropriate. Software based DCB is a brand-new feature in i40e driver. Before, DCB was implemented by Firmware LLDP agent only. The agent was responsible for handling incoming DCB-related LLDP frames and applying received DCB configuration to hardware. New communication channel between software and hardware is required for software driver. It must be able to calculate and configure all the registers related for DCB feature.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
