Add support for SRIOV: send the requested number of VFs to the device Control Plane, via the virtchnl message and then enable the VFs using 'pci_enable_sriov'. Add other ndo ops supported by the driver such as features_check, set_rx_mode, validate_addr, set_mac_address, change_mtu, get_stats64, set_features, and tx_timeout. Initialize the statistics task which requests the queue related statistics to the CP. Add loopback and promiscuous mode support and the respective virtchnl messages. Finally, add documentation and build support for the driver.

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.
